Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Opening

Cordelia receives orders to subject Charlotta to an official inquisition. Meanwhile on the Grandcypher, Baotorda and Bridgette discuss Charlotta's current condition during sword training.



???: ...
A commanding voice echoes across the solemn assembly hall of the Holy Knights.
Praetor: Take heed: I will now recite the decree from our commander.
Praetor: Too many of our members have been leaving the order on a whim as of late. But of particular concern is the disappearance of our captain.
Praetor: Those who disregard the time-honored traditions of the Order of the Holy Knights are an insult to His Eminence!
Praetor: I hereby command you to seek out these traitors and subject them to an inquisition!
???: Aye. I swear upon my sword, body, and soul to pursue all that is just.
???: (Charlotta Fenia, the greatest captain our order has ever seen...)
???: (A Harvin's miniature frame may not be fit for battle, but her incredible swordsmanship and charisma transcend such limitations.)
???: (As far back as my memory stretches, this inquisition may be my most difficult mission yet.)
Bridgette: Hiiiyaa! Huff... Huff...
Baotorda: What's wrong? Keep your blade up. Come on, have another swing.
Bridgette: Y-yes sir! Taaah!
Baotorda: Good, more of that spirit.
Baotorda not in crew

This is Baotorda, former officer of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
In his past he abandoned his post to protect (Captain) and the crew from their pursuers, the Erste Empire army.
A saintly man of true character, he embodies diligence and lives a steadfast life.
Despite having left the order, he still readily practices the Lumiel creed: "Forever pure, forever righteous."
Withdrawing from the Holy Knights was a difficult choice, but Baotorda is a man who must follow his own convictions.
He presently serves under (Captain) and spends his days wielding his sword for justice.
Bridgette: I-I'll do it! I'll give it my all!
Bridgette not in crew

This is Bridgette, also formerly of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
She too lives by the Lumiel motto, striving to do an act of kindness each and every day.
Her idol is Charlotta, the Harvin who famously became captain of the Holy Knights.
But because of her inexperience, her time in the order was somewhat fruitless, and she left to find even greater strength amongst (Captain) and the crew.
Baotorda: Plant your legs there. Now strike.
Bridgette: Huff... Huff...
I-I'm striking!
Bridgette: Haah!
Bridgette: That's it... I can't do anymore...
Baotorda: Hmm, exactly thirty times. Minor progress, but the amount you can do now shows you're improving.
Baotorda: I want to see that same spirit tomorrow. Let's go ahead and call it a day.
Bridgette: R-right!
Bridgette: Thank you very much!
Bridgette has been receiving sword training from Baotorda.
But she found today's lessons especially rigorous. Drained of all energy, she melts onto the floor in a puddle of exhaustion.
Baotorda: Heh-heh. Proper rest is part of proper training. Go ahead—take it easy for a while.
Baotorda: Oh, and incidentally... Have you ever had a chance to talk with Captain Charlotta?
Bridgette: N-not yet! I'm not worthy of addressing such a person!
Bridgette: I've always looked up to Captain Charlotta—that's why I joined the order, actually—but I can't face her while I'm still so weak.
Baotorda: Even though you're both on the same airship? How bizarre.
Bridgette: I'll continue training until I see the day where I can be helpful to her! I'll remain diligent!
Baotorda: Helpful, huh? That day might have come a lot sooner than you think.
Bridgette: What do you mean?
Baotorda lowers his eyebrows at Bridgette's question, his face settling into a worried expression.
Baotorda: Captain Charlotta's put herself into a bind, and it seems to have robbed her of her spirit.
Bridgette: Really! Captain Charlotta?
Baotorda: If there were something, anything we could do to make her feel better... But she's so stubborn—what would she let us do...
Baotorda: Once she's made up her mind about something, she's not apt to change it after all...
Baotorda: I'm just not sure what course of action we can take.
Bridgette: This sounds serious! What kind of bind is Captain Charlotta in?
Baotorda: Well, it seems that—
Child 1: It was delicious, Grandpa! Thank you!
Child 2: Yeah, Grandpa, your cooking's great!
???: Do you really think so? I couldn't ask for anything more! All right then, run along and play!
Child 1: Yeah, let's go!
Child 2: Aah, wait up!
???: Hahaha...
???: Today is going to be a positively charmed one. Ideal for a little jaunt.
A smiling old man watches as the freshly nourished children play in the sunlight, the perfect way to end the day's SOUP operation.
???: Oh what I would give to see that face again. Oh what I would...
???: Dear me, it won't do to sit here woolgathering all day. I simply must hurry.
The old man hurriedly puts his pots and pans away, leaves the room with an ease in his step, and heads out to meet someone dear to him.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 1: Allez Cuisine! - Episode 1

Charlotta's self-denial of Little Skyfarer's Lunches has completely drained her of energy. In her weakest moments, she befalls Cordelia's inquisition.



A gentle breeze passes through the calm morning air. (Captain) and the crew are taking a well-deserved break after completing a mission.
Vyrn: All right! Good work today, everybody! Now let's grab some grub!
Lyria: Yeah! I'm starving!
???: Aaah... Yawn...
Lyria: Huh! Did anybody else hear that voice?
Vyrn: Lyria! Watch where you're going!
Lyria: Wha?
Lyria: Eek! Charlotta! I'm sorry! I wasn't looking down, and I didn't even notice you!
Charlotta: Grumble... Lyria, this is the umpteenth time you've done that! And what do you mean by looking down!
Lyria: N-no, I didn't mean... Well... It's just... I-I'm sorry!
Charlotta: Sigh... Lyria, I know you bear no ill will, but...
Charlotta: It's just—I can't have them anymore. I haven't had a Little Skyfarer's Lunch in forever...
Vyrn: Little Skyfarer's Lunch? Charlotta, are you still on your crusade to give up ordering from the kid's menu?
Charlotta: Of course. I can't bear being treated like a child any longer.
Lyria: But, Charlotta, you don't seem like you're feeling well. You shouldn't push yourself so hard...
Charlotta: It's fine! This is my choice, after all. No more kid's menu, no more Little Skyfarer's Lunches!
This is Charlotta Fenia, captain of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
Though an excellent military leader, she also possesses a cuter side, a side characterized by her love of kid's meals.
The juxtaposition of her childlike appearance with her position as captain of the order was too much for her comrades, so she often found herself the butt of their jokes.
This treatment prompted her to secretly depart from the order, vowing to return only when able to inspire faith and trust in her fellow knights (with her height).
She realized, however, that the growth she desired would be impossible in her present world. Thus she began to think about putting her hopes in another world, the Astral Realm.
That's when she came across (Captain) and the crew, who were searching for a route to Estalucia—the Island of the Astrals. Their goals aligned, she happily boarded the Grandcypher.
But, of course, she's yet to find a way to increase the height of her reputation.
Charlotta: Never mind that, (Captain). I'll be back shortly...
Vyrn: Goin' out? On patrol? Do you really feel up to it?
Charlotta: It's not a problem! I am a Holy Knight—forever pure, forever righteous...
Charlotta: It's my duty to help those in need.
Charlotta: Sooo I'll be back shortly.
Lyria: Hmm... I wonder if Charlotta will really be okay.
After arriving downtown, Charlotta comes across a person in distress. She rushes to help them.
For a moment it seems she's forgotten all about the stress caused by her deficiency of Little Skyfarer's Lunches.
Charlotta: Huff... Wh-what the... My knees are shaking...
Charlotta: Mmm... I feel a little faint. What's going on?
???: Captain Charlotta Fenia. It's an honor to finally meet you.
Charlotta: You! You're from—
Cordelia: I am Cordelia Garnet, last resort of the praetors of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
Charlotta: The praetors...
Cordelia: No need for any frivolous discussion. I believe you know why I've come.
Cordelia: By the virtuous name of His Eminence, and in accordance with the Lumiel inquisition code, I bid you, answer my question.
Cordelia: What does justice mean to you? Swear to the azure sword that you will speak no falsehood!
Charlotta: W-well, it's...
Cordelia: It's?
Charlotta: ...
Cordelia is a crew member

Cordelia: Hey!
Charlotta: Urgh... Little... Skyfarer's Lunch...

Cordelia not in crew

Cordelia: Hey!
Charlotta: C-carry me... I need you to carry me to the airship near the port...
Charlotta: Urgh... Little... Skyfarer's Lunch...
Continue 1
Cordelia: Captain! Get hold of yourself! Captain Charlotta!
An unconscious Charlotta wrapped in her arms, Cordelia rushes to the Grandcypher.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 1: Allez Cuisine! - Episode 2

After carrying a weakened Charlotta back to the Grandcypher, Cordelia is prepared to begin the inquisition. However, Lyria convinces her to postpone the inquisition until Charlotta's condition improves.



Baotorda: Captain Charlotta hasn't returned yet, has she?
Lyria: No, not yet. She's later than usual. I'm a little worried...
Cordelia is a crew member

Cordelia: Is anyone there!
Lyria: Ah, Cordelia, welcome back—
Cordelia: Lyria, sorry to get straight to business, but this is urgent. Please fetch a rag and a flagon of cold water.

Cordelia not in crew

Cordelia: I apologize for the sudden appearance. Is this airship under the command of (Captain)?
Lyria: Huh? Ah, yes, but who are you?
Vyrn: Yeah, fella! Who are ya?
Cordelia: Excuse my indelicacy, but this is urgent. Please fetch a rag and a flagon of cold water.
Lyria: Huh? O-okay...
Continue 1
Lyria: Is that Charlotta! What happened?
Charlotta: Little... Skyfarer's... Lunch...
Cordelia: She's been whispering, "Little Skyfarer's Lunch" over and over like she's having some kind of nightmare.
Baotorda: Captain Charlotta! What in the skies!
Cordelia: You're...
Cordelia is a crew member

Cordelia: Captain Charlotta, Bridgette—and even Baotorda. I'm surprised to see you all on the same airship.
Baotorda: My apologies, but you are?

Cordelia not in crew

Bridgette: Ah! Dear Cordelia! Why are you here? A-and Captain Charlotta!
Vyrn: Huh? Dear Cordelia?
Cordelia: Bridgette! What a twist of fate this is.
Cordelia: Captain Charlotta, Baotorda—and even you. To imagine you'd all be gathered here in the same crew...
Bridgette: Why have you come here, dear Cordelia?
Continue 2
Cordelia: Ah, let us save the pleasantries for later. First we need to carry her to a place where she can rest.
Lyria: Right, come this way!
Cordelia: And then she suddenly collapsed before I could finish the inquisition process.
Bridgette: Inquisition...
Vyrn: That Charlotta! Just how far is she going to take this!
Cordelia: Take what? What do you mean?
Vyrn: She says she's givin' up kid's meals forever! Even though she really loves 'em!
Lyria: She hasn't eaten anything that she's wanted to eat in a long time! She's completely lost her energy.
Cordelia: What? Really?
Baotorda: The cause of her collapse could be stress. Excessive restraint is a burden on both the body and soul, and it can cause great harm if one isn't careful.
Vyrn: Not getting her kid's meals has been a lot tougher on her than any of us thought.
Cordelia: Wait. Surely you can't be speaking of the Captain Charlotta!
Cordelia: The same Charlotta that demonstrated the true extent of Harvin strength? The most celebrated captain in the history of the Order of Holy Knights?
Lyria: Huh? Who else could we mean?
Vyrn: Yeah, the only Charlotta we know is the captain of the Lumiel Order.
Cordelia: Our order's very symbol of justice—obsessing over silly meals designed for children? What slander!
Bridgette: Cordelia, are you really going to subject Captain Charlotta to an inquisition?
Cordelia: Aye. I had my doubts earlier but have since cast them aside. I must be resolute in the investigation.
Cordelia is a crew member

Vyrn: This inquisition business... it don't sound so nice. So the one Cordelia's been looking for was Charlotta all along?
Lyria: Wh-what should we do, (Captain)? I'm worried about Charlotta's health...
Lyria: About the inquisition, could you hold off just a little bit longer?

Cordelia not in crew

Vyrn: What's a inn-kid-zition, anyway? And I'm not sure who you are either, fella, so start explainin'!
Cordelia: Ah, my apologies. I am Cordelia Garnet, last resort of the praetors of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
Cordelia: Just as Bridgette has suggested, I've come under secret orders to inquisite Captain Charlotta.
Baotorda: You're that praetor everyone whispers about...
Cordelia: Haha, it is an honor that my ill repute has befallen your ears, Officer Baotorda.
Vyrn: Ill repute? Are you some kinda bad guy, fella?
Baotorda: Not quite. Praetors conduct their intelligence and investigation operations covertly. Most of their activities are wrapped in secrecy.
Cordelia: Precisely. I have been entrusted with the herculean task of exposing those who would betray or offend the order.
Cordelia: Because it is my duty to look upon the knights with doubt, many in the order find me unsavory.
Vyrn: That explains your reputation.
Vyrn: But you don't look like such a bad guy to me, fella! You even saved Charlotta.
Cordelia: Thank you, my little sire. But allow me to correct you—I am in fact not a bad guy.
Vyrn: Whoa! Really?
Vyrn: You're so cool!
Lyria: About the inquisition, could you hold off just a little bit longer?
Continue 3
Cordelia: I'm sorry, Lyria. I must perform my duty. There's nothing you could say to—
Lyria: It's just, when she wakes up, Charlotta's sure to be drained and weak. Right, (Captain)?
(Captain) nods in agreement with Lyria.
Lyria: I believe Charlotta's health comes first. So please hold off on the inquisition until she's better!
Vyrn: Yeah, that's right! You can't take advantage of her when she's weak!
Baotorda: Cordelia, we won't run. And we won't hide. We firmly accept this inquisition.
Baotorda: But please consider this crew and their friends—we can't just abandon them.
Bridgette: A-also, I'll assist Captain Charlotta! I'll do whatever it takes to return her to normal!
Bridgette: Oh, dear Cordelia, won't you help the captain?
Cordelia: ...
Lyria: I know this is your job, Cordelia, but first...
Cordelia: (Hmph... I might as well have a patent on playing the villain...)
Cordelia: I am a knight in the Lumiel Order. And I shall show Captain Charlotta the respect and honor she deserves.
Vyrn: Then you'll—
Cordelia: As you have suggested, we will give maximum priority to the captain's recovery.
Cordelia: But, Baotorda, I won't forget what you said.
Baotorda: Understood.
Cordelia: Then negotiations are settled.
Cordelia: (Not only are you loved by all of the order, but by these people as well... Could it be your righteousness or something else entirely...)
Lyria: Yay! Thank you, Cordelia!
Cordelia: No, I have simply chosen a course that will not bring shame to the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
Bridgette: Hehe, dear Cordelia, I can tell when you're trying too hard to put on a scary face.
Cordelia: What are you implying? Cut it out, Bridgette.
Bridgette: Hehehe!

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 1: Allez Cuisine! - Episode 3

Sevastien, head chef for the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights, appears at the Grandcypher. After some discussion about the best way to support Charlotta's recovery, Sevastien suggests that they hold a cook-off to create the best Big Skyfarer's Lunch.



???: Excuse me.
Bridgette: Someone's here!
???: I've come because I've heard that Captain Charlotta of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights is quartered here.
Lyria: Huh? Who's this old man?
Sevastien: Forgive me for not introducing myself. I am Sevastien of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
Cordelia: (Sevastien... I've heard of him...)
(Captain), Lyria, and Vyrn shake hands with the old gentleman and introduce themselves.
Sevastien: Lyria, Vyrn, (Captain), correct? Please, call me Sevas.
Lyria: Sevas, Charlotta is resting in her room right now. Should I go tell her she's got a visitor?
Sevastien: Oh, is that so? Would it be any trouble to wait here until she's awoken?
Lyria: Not at all! Right, (Captain)?
Lyria: Aaah! E-excuse me!
Baotorda: Ah, that's right. With all the excitement of Charlotta coming home earlier, we forgot to have lunch.
Sevastien: Oh, that won't do at all.
Sevastien: If you would permit me, shall I help in calming your rumbling stomachs while we wait?
Vyrn: Huh? You mean, like... cook?
Sevastien: You might never guess it, but cooking is actually my hobby. Now, now, everyone—you too, young lady—gather around the table.
Cordelia: Huh? Ah, right...
(He can tell I'm a woman with just a glance!)
Sevastien: Good food is a blessing in life, and a lively table is proof!
Sevastien takes out cooking utensils and ingredients from the case in his hands and begins earnestly cooking.
Baotorda, watching the man go to work, begins to murmur in stunned amazement.
Baotorda: You—there's no way... You're the Lumiel Gourmand!
Vyrn: Hey, you know this old guy?
Baotorda: There's not a citizen in the kingdom that doesn't know of this man. He's a legend...
Lyria: A legend?
Baotorda: When the Holy Kingdom of Lumiel holds special ceremonies, we're treated to fine food that lives up to such occasions.
Baotorda: The man they call the Lumiel Gourmand—he wields ingredients and seasonings perfectly, combining them into invigorating, mouthwatering dishes with perfect nutritional balance.
Baotorda: It's said his secret is a special technique he invented that increases the nutritional content of any ingredient by twofold.
Bridgette: Oh! Even I have tasted his food once at a ceremony!
Baotorda: If you have one bite of the Lumiel Gourmand's cooking, it extends your life by three years. Two bites, six years. And three bites...
Baotorda: Well, with three bites they say you live until you die.
Lyria: Whoa! You live all the way until you die! That's amazing!
Vyrn: Huh? Hold on a second.
Sevastien: Haha, you're a humorous bunch!
Baotorda: It's said that Sevastien spends more time chopping ingredients than brandishing a sword.
Baotorda: Fighting doesn't lead to peace—but food and full stomachs do. That's the basis of his beliefs. He's always going out on missions to feed all kinds of people.
Sevastien: Baotorda, was it? You've certainly heard a great deal about me.
Cordelia: Who hasn't? I once heard of two countries embroiled in a bitter cold war. But when the Lumiel Gourmand came to feed them and broker peace...
Cordelia: The war ended and the nations thanked the order for sending the Gourmand.
Cordelia: Those miraculous missions were deemed the Serve Our Underserved Populations Operations—SOUP Ops. They're still quite a common topic around the order's halls.
Sevastien: Hahaha. Well, the food is ready. I'm sure there are still lots of topics left undiscussed, but please go ahead and eat.
Vyrn: Amazing! You're like lightning behind a pan! That was so fast!
Bridgette: Wow—this... It's the same food from the ceremony! I like to cook, but I'm not capable of making something this beautiful!
Sevastien: Now, now, you had better start eating before it gets cold.
Lyria: This is so delicious!
Vyrn: How does food taste this good! Huh? Anybody else feel like their body's gettin' warmer?
Sevastien: Ah yes, that's the essence of Lumiel Gourmand cooking!
Sevastien: Eating my dishes will enrich your vitality.
Bridgette: Now that you mention it, the last time I had this food I was filled with so much energy I couldn't sleep a wink for two days!
Vyrn: Seriously? Crazy!
Sevastien: If you enjoyed your meal, would you do me the courteousy of saying Sacre Blumiel?
Vyrn: Huh? What for?
Sevastien: It's a magical phrase that makes your meals even more delightful.
Lyria: Sacre Blumiel!
Bridgette: Sacre Blumiel!
Vyrn: Haha! It's kinda fun!
Sevastien: Hahaha... It was my pleasure to cook for you.
Everyone continues enjoying the Lumiel Gourmand's dazzling display of culinary expertise.
Cordelia: I was just thinking... What if Captain Charlotta tried some of Sevastien's cooking? Do you think it would aid in her recovery?
Sevastien: But of course. I can see, however, that you've all been hard at work caring for her.
Sevastien: I wouldn't want to seem rude by intruding and making light of your efforts.
Sevastien: But if there's something that you would discuss with me, I implore you not to hesitate.
Lyria: Is it okay? There's actually something we've been worried about.
Vyrn: Yeah, she's got no energy unless she gets her Little Skyfarer's Lunch, but she keeps sayin' she doesn't want kid's meals anymore!
Bridgette: I'm also a Harvin, so I can understand her distress at constantly being treated like a child.
Bridgette: But a Little Skyfarer's Lunch is for children, and I can't say that I want to eat one.
While everyone racks their brains, trying to think of a way to help Charlotta, Sevastien opens his mouth.
Sevastien: Hmm... If she wants a Little Skyfarer's Lunch... how about this...
Sevastien: We'll just make her a Big Skyfarer's Lunch. Surely this would bring joy to Charlotta.
Lyria: Yeah! I think it's a great idea!
Bridgette: Big Skyfarer's Lunch... Like a Little Skyfarer's Lunch for grown-ups?
Baotorda: Hmm... Why didn't I think of that?
Vyrn: Hehehe! Sounds perfect to me!
Cordelia: In truth I've never seen nor heard of such a dish.
Sevastien: What doesn't exist must be created.
Sevastien: Haha. So how about this—everyone will compete to create the greatest Big Skyfarer's Lunch.
Sevastien: And to the victor, I will teach my secret Lumiel Gourmand recipe. Sound appetizing?
Lyria: What! It's okay for you to give away such an important recipe?
Sevastien: I give my all in everything I do. Making food that brings smiles to others is not a half-hearted affair.
Vyrn: Great! Leave it to us! Lyria, (Captain), are you ready to get cookin'?
Bridgette: Hurray! Hurray! Oh dear Cordelia, let's do it together! We'll certainly win!
Cordelia: Uh... A-all right...
Baotorda: I want to see Charlotta make a quick recovery, so allow me to join in the competition as well.
Sevastien: Allez cuisine! Charlotta and I will act as judges. She'll surely enjoy participating.
Sevastien: I can't wait to taste everyone's delicious, delightful cooking.
Vyrn: It's a full-blown food fight for Charlotta's taste buds!
Bridgette: No one is a match for Cordelia and me! We won't lose!
Baotorda: I've come to see Captain Charlotta as a close ally and friend. I won't lose!
So it begins—the ultimate cooking battle for unparalleled glory, the Big Skyfarer's Lunch Showdown!

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 1: Allez Cuisine! - Episode 4

Sevastien and Charlotta spend some time catching up. Charlotta is relieved to hear that Sevastien is not disappointed in her for leaving the order, but more than that, she's excited to help out with the competition.



Charlotta: Hoo... Haa... Huh? This is my room...
Sevastien: You've finally awoken. How is your condition, madam?
Charlotta: If it—if it isn't Grandbutler! Why are you here!
Sevastien: I heard a rumor on the wind that you were receiving care here on (Captain)'s airship. I thought I would come see for myself.
Charlotta: Just how many people have already heard about my condition...
Sevastien: Hahaha. Well, who can say for certain? But I hear the madam's been abstaining from her Little Skyfarer's Lunches. Madam, that's a touch excessive, won't you agree?
Charlotta: Ohh... I wish you wouldn't say that...
Sevastien: I must say if we don't take care of our bodies, then we are setting ourselves up for a grand fall.
Sevastien: And you have certainly reached the very heights of your body's limit, I'm afraid.
Charlotta: Yes, but... Um... Grandbutler, you're not mad about me leaving the Holy Knights?
Sevastien: Hmm... I'm not certain what the Lumiel Order believes, but do you think I would doubt your righteousness?
Sevastien: You have your own beliefs. I have no intention of questioning them. None at all.
Charlotta: Grandbutler...
Sevastien: Enough of that, I've another topic to discuss...
Sevastien explains that the Grandcypher is on the brink of an all-out competitive cooking battle.
Charlotta: B-but why!
Sevastien: You are very loved no matter where you go, madam. Everyone here wants to bring you back to health in whatever way they can.
Charlotta: What? For me? I'm not worth the trouble!
Sevastien: I thought you might say something like that, so I've prepared a prize.
Charlotta: A prize?
Sevastien: I'm a little ashamed to say that I've made your condition into a game.
Sevastien: Everyone will put their culinary skills to the test, and to the victor go the spoils—I will divulge the Lumiel Gourmand recipe to the top contestant.
Sevastien: Forever delicious, forever delightful is the theme of our little event. Please just enjoy yourself. You can even help everyone, if you'd like.
Charlotta: It... it... sounds great! I'll split my time between everyone and help them the best I can!
Excited by this new prospect, Charlotta begins to leap out of bed.
Sevastien: Ah, just a moment.
Sevastien: Before you run off, have this bread. Even a few nibbles of crust will do—you'll need your stamina.
Charlotta: Th-thank you!
Charlotta: Munch, munch...
Gulp.
Charlotta: Aaall right! I'm off to check on everyone!
Sevastien watches as Charlotta flies out of the room, the corners of his mouth turning up into a smile.
Sevastien: Hahaha... I must say, you are still a child after all, madam.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 2: The Finest Ingredients - Episode 1

Unsure of what constitutes a mature dish, Team (Captain) heads to the mountains to collect cayenne peppers. As luck would have it, they find other ingredients growing there as well.



Lyria: Hmm...
Vyrn: Whoa—so many foods have apples in 'em! I wanna eat 'em all!
Lyria: Wow! They call this foie gran of the sea. It looks so good!
(Captain), Vyrn, and Lyria are flipping through the pages of several cookbooks they borrowed from Katalina.
(Captain) is perusing Life of Spice, Lyria is browsing Encyclopaedia Delicia, and Vyrn is scanning Now Yer Cookin' with Apples.
Lyria: Ah! Look at this! There are these lobsters called prismaprawns that live in deep jungles!
Vyrn: Prismaprawns? Never heard of 'em!
Lyria: It says, "Known as the jewels of the jungle, their bodies glitter irra—iridescently—in the sunlight."
Lyria: Apparently they're one of the rarest of all delicacies, even from the ones listed in this encyclopedia!
Vyrn: You don't say... It'd be awesome if we could get our hands on one!
Lyria: There are so many rare ingredients around the world! Oh, look here—these are the top three delicacies!
Laid out before (Captain)'s team are all of the ingredients they could find in the cupboard: some eggs and a few types of seasoning.
They're researching desperately to find something they can make from their paltry fixings.
Vyrn: Well, don't think a sunny-side up is gonna win us first prize. Just reading books won't get us anywhere either. Come on, let's go grocery hunting!
Lyria: You're right. But what kind of things do we need to make a Big Skyfarer's Lunch? We need to get stuff grown-ups like, right?
(Captain) sets the open Life of Spice in front of Lyria and points to a page.
Vyrn: Cayenne pepper!
Lyria: I get it... Adults can usually handle eating spicy things!
Vyrn: Hey, hey, here it says, "The variety of cayenne native to Fehrtyl Island possesses a perfect balance of sweet and spicy flavors."
Vyrn: Sounds perfect!
Lyria: We may be able to get other ingredients from the mountains on Fehrtyl Island too.
Vyrn: We can't let the other teams get ahead of us. Get a move on, people!
Lyria: Umm... According to the map, the place where the peppers grow should be right around here somewhere.
Guided by a map in the appendix of Life of Spice, (Captain) and team proceed to the inner parts of the mountain.
Vyrn: Oh! Is that it? (Captain), Lyria, there's a ton growing over here!
Lyria: Wow! You're right! There's so much!
Vyrn: Hey, wanna try some? Fresh-picked stuff is usually pretty delicious.
Lyria: What! It's better to use it as an ingredient! A-and eating it like this is just scary!
Vyrn: Hehe! Lyria's a scaredy-cat! How about you, (Captain)? Give it a shot?
  1. Absolutely!
  2. You first, Vyrn.

Choose: Absolutely!
Vyrn: That's the captain I know!
Vyrn: Come on, time's-a-wasting, (Captain)!
(Captain) takes a big bite of a pepper.
(Captain) chews for a bit, sampling the flavors. The captain retains a relaxed facial expression for a moment...
But soon an overwhelming sensation causes (Captain)'s mouth to erupt into pain.
Vyrn: Uh-oh! (Captain), your face is crazy red!
Spreading from tongue to cheek, the burning is merciless and unyielding.
Lyria: Aaah! W-water, water! Here, drink this quick, (Captain)!
A flustered Lyria and a frantic Vyrn can only watch as tears begin to well up in (Captain)'s eyes.
Vyrn: S-sorry, (Captain)! I had no idea it'd be that hot!
(Captain) quickly learns the result of excessive spiciness: pain itself.
Lyria: Does it still hurt?
Discovering some force of will deep inside to withstand the intense piquant agony, (Captain) manages to smirk.
Vyrn: You're gonna be all right after all, (Captain)!

Choose: You first, Vyrn.
Vyrn: Hehe, no problem! I'm pretty tough. Bet I can handle a little spice easy enough!
Vyrn takes a big bite of the pepper in (Captain)'s hand.
Vyrn: Hm? Hey, this isn't as bad as I—
Vyrn: Cough! Wheeze! Cough, cough!
Lyria: Aah! Vyrn, are you okay?
Vyrn: Aaah! It burns! G-gimme water, stat!
(Captain) hurriedly fetches water for Vyrn.
Vyrn: Urgh, this hurts so much! My mouth is on fire!
Lyria: Just looking at the pepper is enough to make me sweat!
Although (Captain) feels sorry for Vyrn, the captain finds it hard to deny that the little dragon's cute when he's suffering.
Continue 1
After gathering some chili peppers, the team continues the trek on the mountain, hoping to find more ingredients.
Lyria: Sniff, sniff. Something smells good. I wonder if it could be wild vegetables?
Vyrn: Ah! Over there—look! Those look like truffles!
Just in the distance, a cluster of truffles peak their caps out of the soil.
Lyria: You're right! How did such rare mushrooms get there?
Vyrn: Hehe! We lucked out, huh? We'll definitely be able to cook with them!
???: Snort...
Lyria: Hmm? Did you say something, Vyrn?
Vyrn: No... (Captain), did you?
Just as (Captain) turns around to look for the source of the noise, the ground begins to tremble.
Lyria: Aah! The ground's moving!
Wild Boar: Snort!
Vyrn: Aah! What the heck! I thought it was just the ground, but it's some overgrown pig!
Lyria: Look, (Captain)! There're more truffles growing on the back of that boar!
Vyrn: Is it the king of this mountain? He came here to spread his truffle spores!
Wild Boar: Squeeeal!
Vyrn: Yikes! He's coming right for us! Get ready, (Captain)!

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 2: The Finest Ingredients - Episode 2

Charlotta visits "Team" Baotorda, who is in his kitchen planning his Big Skyfarer's Lunch alone. Because Baotorda has always made the best Little Skyfarer's Lunches, Charlotta is elated to try his dish.



Baotorda: ...
Baotorda is deliberating to himself.
Baotorda: (A Big Skyfarer's Lunch... I shouldn't use anything that would suggest immature flavor.)
Baotorda: (So how does one go about making a dish exude maturity?)
Baotorda: (Maturity. Children's food... What could be the key to unite these two polar opposites?)
Baotorda: (And I'll have to consider nutritional balance as well...)
Baotorda: (A dish that will suit Captain Charlotta's palate, one that gives her the same excitement and passion as a Little Skyfarer's Lunch...)
Baotorda: (A dish that adults wouldn't have a problem eating—nay, a single dish that anyone would want to eat!)
Baotorda: Whew... I mustn't rush. It will be enough as long as Captain Charlotta enjoys herself.
Baotorda: First thing's first, we'll need to retrieve ingredients.
Charlotta: Baotorda!
Baotorda: Well now, Captain Charlotta. How are you feeling?
Charlotta: Sevastien gave me some bread, so I'm feeling a lot better.
Baotorda: Is that so? I'm pleased to hear it.
Charlotta: I heard that everyone's busy cooking me a Litt—Big Skyfarer's Lunch!
Charlotta: I'm both humbled and flattered that everyone would go out of their way, but if there's anything I can do to help, I'd like to participate!
Baotorda: Oh? But, Captain Charlotta, are you not to act as judge?
Baotorda: Would it be fair for the judge to assist a participant?
Charlotta: There's no problem as long as I split my time evenly between the teams.
Charlotta: Sevastien knows my tastes better than anyone else, so he would catch it immediately if I tried to favor one of the teams.
Charlotta: And above all else, I want to be a part of it when someone takes the legendary recipe fair and square!
Baotorda: Haha, if that's how you want it.
Charlotta's carefree laugh causes Baotorda to give a satisfied grin.
Charlotta: Oh, and I've always loved your version of a Little Skyfarer's Lunch, Baotorda.
Charlotta: So I can't express to you how super-duper excited I am to try your Big Skyfarer's Lunch!
Baotorda: Haha. I will do my best to live up to your expectations.
Thinking of how happy Charlotta's going to be, Baotorda is even more excited to begin the competition.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 2: The Finest Ingredients - Episode 3

Charlotta visits Team Brodelia. Bridgette can't contain her nervousness upon seeing her idol in the flesh, but with the inquisition looming in the background, Cordelia is less thrilled to see her.



Bridgette: It's just you and me, dear Cordelia.
Bridgette: So you don't have to put on your scary face!
Cordelia: Huh? You said the same thing earlier. What do you mean put on? This is my face.
Bridgette: We've been together since we were cadets, Cordelia. I can tell when you're putting on an act!
Bridgette: Cooking is enjoyable. If you don't look like you're enjoying it, then one would assume you're not ready to cook.
Cordelia: Uh... Where are you going with this?
Bridgette: This is my chance to be of service to Captain Charlotta. I have to do everything I can.
Bridgette: I know you have a number of responsibilities, but please, as a fellow Knight, let's do this together!
Cordelia: That was my plan all along. I am not one to go back on agreements. We'll put our strength together and claim victory.
Bridgette: Hurray! Then let's begin cooking!
Charlotta: Pardon me, I'm coming in.
Bridgette: Ah! Captain Charlotta!
Bridgette: Wh-what's wrong!
Cordelia: Well, Captain Charlotta. What's happened?
As Charlotta enters the room, a chill of nerves runs down Bridgette's spine, but to her side Cordelia simply and coldly states a question.
Charlotta: I heard that you'll be preparing a meal for me. I came to check on your progress.
Charlotta: If there's anything I can help with, I will lend my aid!
Cordelia: We thank you for the offer, but it won't be necessary. Bridgette and I want to do this by ourselves.
Charlotta: But...
Cordelia: Competition aside, your inquisition will begin as soon as this is all over, Captain Charlotta.
Charlotta: I understand. I've already heard the details.
Cordelia: And I've heard you left the order to reach new heights. Quite an unprecedented case.
Cordelia: I find it hard to believe that one regarded as the strongest knight in the history of the order would do this.
Cordelia: I will thoroughly scrutinize your reasoning and explanation as you make your appeal.
Charlotta: I won't make excuses. I bear responsibility for my decision to leave the order.
Charlotta: When it's time for the inquisition, I will cooperate without hesitation.
Cordelia: ...
Charlotta: But first allow me to say this.
Charlotta: Believe what you wish, but you have no right to ridicule my desire to increase my stature!
Cordelia: ...
Bridgette: Eh-heh... Cordelia meant no offense, so, um...
Charlotta: Bridgette, was it? I understand that.
Bridgette: Ah...
Charlotta: Cordelia, I have one other thing I must tell you.
Cordelia: And what would that be?
Charlotta: For bringing me back to this ship after I collapsed, you have my gratitude.
Charlotta: Thank you very much.
Charlotta bows her head in respect.
Bridgette: Whoa! Captain Charlotta, what are you doing!
Cordelia: Hey! You're a captain! Don't lower your head so lightly!
Charlotta: This is not me showing my gratitude as a captain but as a person. I wanted to be sincere.
Charlotta: That will be all!
Charlotta: I eagerly await the opportunity to try your cooking!
Charlotta leaves the room after finishing her address.
Cordelia: ...
Bridgette: I knew it! Captain Charlotta is amazing! She's the captain I've admired for so long!
Cordelia: ...
Bridgette: Oh, dear Cordelia, are you upset?
Cordelia: No... Nothing like that...
Cordelia: But, Bridgette. Please stop calling me "dear."
Bridgette: But why, dear Cordelia? You are ever so dear to me!
Cordelia: For Lumiel's sake... Whenever I have to talk to you, it makes me so agitated... At any rate, shall we start with gathering the ingredients?
Bridgette: Yes!

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 2: The Finest Ingredients - Episode 4

Having read that adults enjoy delicacies, (Captain) and company begin to plan their menu around this fact. They make a salad and then take it to Charlotta for a taste test.



Lyria: Let's see! Now we have eggs, vegetables, cayenne, truffles, and some seasoning!
Vyrn: Not a bad harvest, eh? What should we make?
(Captain) opens up a cookbook called Capricious Cafe Cuisine and points to a certain page.
Lyria: Hmm... A list of "sophisticated dishes for the woman on the go?"
Vyrn: Hey! That's exactly the kind of stuff we're looking for!
Lyria: "Choose one of these scrun—scrumptious dishes to change up your everyday life with rare flavors."
Vyrn: Aha! So grown-ups like rare ingredients after all!
Vyrn: Whoa! Some of these are too pretty to be food.
Lyria: Yeah, they're so beautiful! Oh, it even tells you how to plate a dish. Let's keep this page open!
Vyrn: Everybody, let's get cookin'!
Lyria: Hmm... Wash the vegetables and cut them into bite-sized chunks...
Lyria: For a salad we'll need to put the vegetables in a bowl, add dressing, and mix it thoroughly...
Vyrn: We could just make a veggie platter. You just gotta cut vegetables and put 'em on a plate. That sounds easier.
Lyria: This isn't about what's easier! Katalina always says that cooking is about love!
Vyrn: Oh, she does... I, uhh, guess she knows better...
(Captain) puts the washed vegetables in a bowl and begins prepping them to be served.
Vyrn: Hey, that looks kinda fun! Let me join!
Lyria: I want to try too! Should the leaves look like this after you pluck them?
The trio seasons the salad per the recipe's recommendation before transferring it to a platter.
Lyria: Hey, (Captain), this book says we can make a nice topping from truffles and rock salt.
Vyrn: Perfect! Let's use that truffle salt instead of the regular stuff!
(Captain) grinds the truffles and rock salt together in pursuit of the perfect blend. With a dash of the new condiment, the first dish is finished.
Vyrn: Whoa, we really outdid ourselves.
Lyria: All of the vegetables make it so colorful! I think grown-ups would like it!
The trio, satisfaction plastered on their faces, carry the dish to Charlotta.
Charlotta: You've already finished a dish? Well done, Team (Captain)!
Sevastien: Oh, what a delightful salad! These fresh vegetables, they're positively frolicking in the bowl!
Lyria: We haven't finished our Big Skyfarer's Lunch yet, but could you try this for us first?
Charlotta: Of course! I would love to!
Charlotta: Munch, munch...
Lyria: Huff, huff!
Vyrn: How is it? Like it?
Charlotta: Ulgh...
Lyria: Ulgh?
Charlotta: It's too salty!
Lyria: What! Really?
Sevastien: Oh my, oh my... Come now, may I have a taste as well?
Vyrn: Absolutely! Give us some advice after you eat it!
Sevastien: Hmm... Truffles? Rock salt? It certainly does taste a tad strong...
(Captain) takes out Capricious Cafe Cuisine and shows the homemade seasoning recipe to Sevastien.
Sevastien: Hmm. Truffle salt, is it? Rock salt possesses a stronger flavor than regular salt, so it would be prudent to use it sparingly.
Sevastien: I might also suggest that it's best to add no more than a pinch of salt at the end. This is to prevent the vegetables from releasing too much moisture.
Lyria: Whoa... Thanks for the tips. Cooking is difficult!
Charlotta: I'm sorry. I know how much effort and time you spent making this for me.
Charlotta: But I do in fact like my salads with lots of flavor, so you're on the right track!
Charlotta: If you just fine tune this a little, I'm sure you'll have a shot!
Vyrn: Got it! We'll get the taste right next time! Just wait!
Lyria: Yeah, we'll definitely impress you!
Team (Captain) leaves the room reinvigorated for the competition.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 3: Better Get Cookin' - Episode 1

Team (Captain) begins discussing the next dish. Lyria reads about banana friedough, a sweet, popular dish that the team agree would be perfect for Charlotta.



Vyrn: Okay, so we know how to fix the salad. But we're gonna have to make other stuff to make the best Big Skyfarer's Lunch.
Vyrn: What else can we make? Lyria, did you find anything else?
Lyria: Yes! This looks really good! How about it, (Captain)?
As the trio dicusses the next dish, Lyria excitedly describes recipes from Encyclopaedia Delicia.
Vyrn: Lemme see! Huh, what's a banana friedough?
Lyria: It says here that it's a popular comfort food eaten in other skydoms. Oh, but it's getting popular in Port Breeze!
Vyrn: Really? I can't tell why it would get so big.
Lyria: Hey, (Captain), Charlotta is always saying she loves sweet things, so why don't we make something out of bananas?
Lyria: We can't eat them around here that much—it would feel like a special grown-up treat getting to have something that's hard to find!
Vyrn: Hmm... Sounds good to me! It'll be somethin' the other teams can't make. Somethin' that'll blow her socks off!
(Captain) agrees with Lyria's suggestion.
Vyrn: All right! So that's our next dish! Wait, which place has the best bananas... Oh yeah, Auguste!
Team (Captain) immediately make for the land known as a treasure trove of ingredients, the jungles of Auguste.
Vyrn: Nice! So these are bananas?
Lyria: That's right! Wow—there are so many! They smell so sweet!
Vyrn: Are they ripe enough to eat? I'm ready to bite into a couple.
In the deep jungles of Auguste, wild banana trees bear fruit year-round.
Lyria: Carrying them is going to be difficult, but if we can just get them back to the Grandcypher...
???: Oooh!
Lyria: Ahh! What was that? Vyyyrn, don't tease me.
Vyrn: Huh? But I didn't do nothin'!
Lyria: What? But I just felt something pull my hair.
???: Oo-ooh aa-ah!
Vyrn: Ouch! What the! Who just threw a banana peel at me!
Lyria: (Captain), there's something there! Be careful!
Monkey: Oo-ooh aa-ah-aaah!
Lyria: Eek! Ah? A-a monkey!
Monkey: Oo-ooh oo-ooh!
(Captain) steps between the threatening monkey and Lyria, who is keeping a tight squeeze on an armful of bananas.
Vyrn: It wants our bananas!
The monkey and (Captain) glare at each other.
Monkey: Oo-ooh... Oo-ah-aah!
In a display of kindness, (Captain) tosses a banana to the intimidated monkey.
Monkey: Oo-ooh... Ah-aah!
Vyrn: Hey-hey! It's starting to act weird...
Monkey Troop: Eek-eek! Oo-ooh!
Monkey Troop: Ohoohoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Lyria: Aaah!
Vyrn: This is bad! It called its friends!
A troop of monkeys appears from the brush, encircling the trio.
Vyrn: It got worse! Run for it!
At Vryn's call, (Captain) and the party turn tail and make a break for the Grandcypher.
Monkey Troop: Eek-eek! Eeek-eeek!
Vyrn: Aaah!
Lyria: Aaah!
With bananas in one hand and Lyria's hand in the other, a grimacing (Captain) dashes away from the monkey troop.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 3: Better Get Cookin' - Episode 2

Team Brodelia heads into town to procure ingredients for the team's Big Skyfarer's Lunch. To Cordelia's delight, they happen upon a shop that stocks rare teas and purchase some for her team's dish.



While Team (Captain) dashes through the jungles of Auguste, Team Brodelia heads to town to do some shopping.
Bridgette: Dear Cordelia, what type of food do you normally cook?
Cordelia: I'm not sure you could call what I make cooking, per se. There's not enough time in the day, so I don't make anything that requires a lot of effort.
Cordelia: It's usually just easy-to-make, ready-to-eat food. If I've got guard duty, patrol duty, or if I'm out on an investigation, I'll need something I can eat efficiently.
Bridgette: Now that you say it, I guess you've always prioritized quickness over quality.
Cordelia: Just when it comes to food. But you, on the other hand, you've always been good at cooking, treating us to meals countless times.
Cordelia: Watching you cook so eagerly in your little apron—haha—you were so lovely. I always secretly admired you.
Cordelia: As far as nutrition is concerned, I am among the most careless in the order. Your talent is something I could never imitate. Your food is delicious.
Bridgette: Cordelia, if you truly believe so, then let's do this together! Here and now!
Bridgette: I may be able to cook, but I don't understand that spark that makes adult food more complex! I'm relying on you, Cordelia!
Cordelia: Haha, I see your point. It's not a half-bad idea.
The two continue their chat as they walk down the street. Suddenly Cordelia pauses in front of a store.
Cordelia: Hmm... This store has a great atmosphere.
Bridgette: It has a stylish, grown-up vibe, doesn't it? I'm not sure I'd have the courage to go in by myself.
Cordelia: They stock famous goods from all over the sky. We could probably find something good. Come, let's peek inside.
Cordelia: Oh, they even have Lumiepton Blend Tea.
Cordelia: Ah, and they have those rare tea leaves too! They don't even sell these in the kingdom anymore! I can't believe they have these here!
Bridgette: What are you looking at, Cordelia?
Cordelia: Oh, Bridgette. Sorry, seeing all these rare teas, I just couldn't help myself.
Cordelia: It's good to stop in a hole-in-the-wall once in a while. Sometimes you'll come across a diamond amongst the coal.
Cordelia: So, finished shopping? I apologize for leaving that to you. Here—I'll carry the bags.
Bridgette: How about you take half? Thanks!
Both arms wrapped around the fruits of her shopping, Bridgette happily hands a bag to Cordelia.
Cordelia: Hand over the other too. It would be dishonorable to not do my fair share.
Bridgette: It's no problem! I can handle this bag! You'll be helping me a lot in the kitchen anyway!
Cordelia: Haha, go easy on me.
Bridgette: I know a great dish that calls for tea, by the way! We'll make that!
Cordelia: I often see cakes and cookies that use tea leaves, but this is the first time I've heard of tea in a dish.
Cordelia: Haha. Now I'm really excited to see what'll come out of our collaboration.
On their way back to the Grandcypher from shopping, the pair come across a crowd.
Cordelia: Is that...
Bridgette: Someone's in trouble!
Before the words have even left her mouth, Bridgette dashes to the crowd in a patter of tiny footsteps.
Cordelia: Bridgette, hold back! Wait! I'll help too!

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 3: Better Get Cookin' - Episode 3

While Baotorda is out shopping for his ingredients, he sees a scoundrel threatening the patrons and owner of a bar. Charlotta appears and takes care of the problem before it escalates.



"Team" Baotorda is shopping by himself in town.
Baotorda: There's a lot of fresh vegetables left. I've come at a good time.
Finished with his shopping at the grocers, the knight heads back into the street to find his next ingredient.
Because it's mid-day, the market roads are animated with lively crowds.
Baotorda: Excuse me, I'm looking for red meat. Do you have any?
Meat Vendor: Welcome! You've come at a great time, sir! I've just finished carving up some veal.
Meat Vendor: Our hunter is in the top of his class—even drains the blood for me. Makes for mighty fine meat. Not a lot of fat on it either!
Baotorda: Hmm... I guess I could go with veal...
Baotorda: (Could grind it and make hamburger steak. Juicy, soft texture... That would certainly whet an appetite.)
Baotorda: (No need to be fancy with the seasoning. Using as little spice as possible will preserve the natural savoriness of the meat.)
Baotorda: (Garnish probably isn't necessary, but thinking of Captain Charlotta's dietary needs, a little green on the plate might not be such a bad idea.)
Baotorda: Hmmm...
Baotorda: Or what about a thin fried cutlet...
Meat Vendor: Sir?
Baotorda: Topped with golden cheese... What a perfect harmony...
Baotorda: Deep fry it in plenty of oil over a hot flame... This could be the ideal way to utilize lean meat...
Baotorda: Alas! How does one choose between the two?
Meat Vendor: A-ah... Sir? Siiir—are you gonna buy this?
Baotorda: Oh, my apologies! Yes, indeed!
Meat Vendor: W-we appreciate your patronage...
Baotorda hands the vendor some coins and raises his head upon hearing a loud voice.
Baotorda: Huh? There seems to be some sort of uproar.
Scoundrel: I'm in a bad mood right now, so my sword might accidentally cut someone, see?
Scoundrel: If you don't wanna find out who it's swingin' at, you better bring me some liquor quick!
Barkeep: I'll bring it to you right away! S-so stop this! P-please!
Bar Patron: Tch... Where are the damn guards!
A roguish man is occupying the doorway of the bar, swinging his sword and threatening both the bar owner and patrons.
Charlotta: Cease this at once!
Baotorda: Is that... Captain Charlotta!
Charlotta: Your shameful actions truly befit a weak-willed worm!
Charlotta: I demand you stop this disgraceful display and leave this place immediately!
Scoundrel: Seriously, kid? You pipsqueak! You takin' that cheeky tone with me—you lookin' to get killed?
Charlotta: I'm not a kid! And there's nothing pippy or squeaky about me either!
Bridgette: Look! O-over there, is that Captain Charlotta?
Cordelia: Wh-what's going on!
Baotorda: Ah, Bridgette, Cordelia, you're both here?
Cordelia: Baotorda! Why are you so calm? You're not going to back the captain up?
Baotorda: Oh, well, if she can't restrain him, then we certainly won't be able to.
Cordelia: What do you—
Scoundrel: Kid, I swear if you don't shut yer mouth!
Charlotta: Sure, I may look like a child.
Charlotta: And I may cause trouble for my friends at times...
Charlotta: But I am an envoy of justice, a Holy Knight—forever pure and forever righteous! And it is my mission to protect those in need!
Charlotta: I am an agent of the honorable sept that founded the Holy Kingdom of Lumiel!
Charlotta: And captain of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights—Charlotta Fenia!
Charlotta: So prepare yourself! My sword and my heart are one, and I deem you, knave, guilty!
Scoundrel: I've had enough of you, pipsqueak! Yer gonna die!
Charlotta: Hah!
The scoundrel throws himself at Charlotta with a frenzied onslaught, but she easily rebuffs each of his strikes.
Scoundrel: Wh-what the hell are you! M-monster!
Charlotta: Is that all you've got!
Charlotta: Then allow me to take a turn! Haah!
Scoundrel: Eek!
Charlotta: Give up. Things are just going to get worse for you if you keep resisting.
Scoundrel: Tch...
After being backed into a corner by Charlotta, the scoundrel is forced to stand down. A guard arrives shortly thereafter and takes him away.
Baotorda: Well done, Captain.
Charlotta: Huh! Baotorda! And Bridgette and Cordelia!
Bridgette: Y-you—you were so amazing! I want to be just like you!
Baotorda: I thought we would have just gotten in your way if we had attempted to aid you, so I took it upon myself to keep watch from the sidelines.
Charlotta: Is that so? Well, it all worked out in the end!
Cordelia: (That man... The praetors have put a top bounty on his head...)
Cordelia: (But against her swordsmanship, he looked like a baby wielding a rattle... The rumors about the captain certainly aren't without merit.)
Bridgette: What's the matter, Cordelia?
Cordelia: It's... It's nothing.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 3: Better Get Cookin' - Episode 4

After running from a group of monkeys dead set on getting Team (Captain)'s bananas, the team plops down by a river for a little rest and relaxation. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, a gleaming prismaprawn appears in the water.



Vyrn: Huff... Huff... We've run so far... You think the monkeys stopped followin' us?
Lyria: Huff... I-I hope so... Can we take a break?
Through some stroke of luck, Team (Captain) have managed to escape the monkey troop.
The trio take a seat close to a stream running through the jungle. They listen to the babbling water.
Prismaprawn: ...
Glimmering with a chromatic sheen, a remarkably bizarre creature appears before them.
Lyria: What the?
Vyrn: What's wrong, Lyria?
Lyria: Over there... Is that really a...
Prismaprawn: ...
Vyrn: That? It must be a...
Vyrn: Prismaprawns? Never heard of 'em!
Lyria: It says, "Known as the jewels of the jungle, their bodies glitter irra—iridescently—in the sunlight."
Lyria: Apparently they're one of the rarest of all delicacies, even from the ones listed in this encyclopedia!
Prismaprawn: ...!
Lyria and Vyrn: Prismaprawn! It's a primsaprawn!
It was indeed the very same creature from Lyria's beloved Encyclopaedia Delicia: the elusive prismaprawn.
The members of Team (Captain) can't believe their luck and are bursting with excitement.
Lyria: Amazing! It's really real! And it's so sparkly!
Vyrn: I'll catch it! One rare delicacy comin' right up!
Sensing the trio approaching, the prismaprawn begins snipping its pincers threateningly.
Vyrn: Uh-oh, this thing's not gonna go down easy! Help me out here, (Captain)!
Not keen on letting this chance slip by, (Captain) throws everything into an attempt at capturing the prismaprawn.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 4: Secret Ingredient: Justice - Episode 1

Team (Captain) returns to the Grandcypher and gets straight to cooking a banana friedough. Their repeated attempts result in failure after failure, but eventually they learn the proper frying technique and produce a dish they feel confident about.



Lyria: Cooking is love!

One rare delicacy,

Comin' right up!
Vyrn: What the heck are you singin'?
Lyria: It's the cooking song! Written and produced by yours truly! Hehe!
Vyrn: Man, it's stuck in my head now.

One rare delicacy,

Comin' right up...
Lyria: You said that earlier, and I thought it would make a catchy tune.
Lyria: Oh, so I guess that means it was written by Lyria and Vyrn, huh?
Vyrn: Hehe. Go ahead. You take the credit.
Team (Captain) has returned to the Grandcypher after successfully capturing the prismaprawn.
Now the trio is in the kitchen cheerfully peeling bananas.
Vyrn: So how many bananas do we need anyway? Make sure to peel enough extra ones so we can do a taste test!
Lyria: Ah! You're right! We can't mess up like we did with the salad.
Vyrn: Okay, next we've gotta make the batter. Lyria, can you read the directions?
Lyria: Let's see... Thoroughly mix flour, water, and eggs. Oh! And add salt!
Vyrn: Salt, got it! Leave the mixin' to me!
Vyrn: Hey, should we use the truffle salt from before?
  1. Truffle salt it is!
  2. Regular salt it is!

Choose: Truffle salt it is!
Vyrn: Truffle salt it is!
Vyrn: Bam! Is this enough? Last time we put in too much.
(Captain) grins and gives Vyrn a nod.

Choose: Regular salt it is!
Vyrn: Regular salt it is!
Vyrn: Bam!
Lyria: Vyrn! That's sugar!
Vyrn: Aah! I mixed 'em up! Sorry!
(Captain) smiles at a repentant Vyrn and reassures him that banana dishes are often sweet.
Continue 1
Vyrn: Now we fry it up!
(Captain) takes a slice of banana, coats it in the batter, and gently places it in the oil.
Lyria: Wow! It even sounds delicious...
Lyria: But, (Captain), the banana's turning really dark!
Vyrn: The oil's too hot! If we don't get it out quick, we're gonna have a burnana on our hands!
(Captain) lowers the heat and quickly pulls the banana out.
Lyria: Sigh... It's burnt to a crisp.
Vyrn: Urgh... How do you control the heat on this thing? Can't tell the temperature at all just by lookin'.
Lyria: Hmm... Let's wait for the oil to cool a little bit and try again!
Vyrn: All right, seems like it's cooled down! Give 'er another shot!
Once again (Captain) places a banana into the oil.
Vyrn: Hey, nothing's happenin'. Earlier there were all those bubbles and that sizzle-sizzle sound.
Lyria: Is the temperature too low this time?
Lifting the banana out of the oil, the team finds that their banana friedough turned into more of a banana goopdough.
Vyrn: This frying business really has us cooked!
Undeterred, Team (Captain) continues testing methods through rigorous trial and error.
The temperature of the oil, the timing of ingredient insertion and extraction—the team experiment with numerous alterations.
After struggling for some time, they hone their frying technique and produce a perfect friedough, golden and crispy.
Lyria: (Captain), Vyrn, we did it! This is a real banana friedough!
Vyrn: Come on! Let's take it to Charlotta before it gets cold!

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 4: Secret Ingredient: Justice - Episode 2

Team (Captain) and Team Brodelia simultaneously bring dishes to Charlotta for taste testing. After hearing Charlotta's impressions, (Captain), Vyrn, and Lyria decide they need to rethink their strategy for the Big Skyfarer's Lunch Showdown.



Bridgette: Uh-um... Are there any foods you're not particularly fond of, Captain Charlotta?
Charlotta: No, no. I'm not so picky about what I eat.
Sevastien: Oh, is that so? I seem to remember you having an aversion to bitter foods.
Charlotta: I'm aware that bitter foods do the body good, so I eat them too!
Vyrn: Oh, Team Brodelia! What're you guys up to?
Cordelia: We were just asking Captain Charlotta about her culinary preferences. It seems she's not one for bitter flavors.
Charlotta: B-but don't be mistaken! I can still stomach them!
Vyrn: Hehe! I'm there with you on the bitter stuff! Hate it!
Lyria: Charlotta, do you have a minute? We've brought another dish! Would you mind trying it for us?
Charlotta: I wouldn't mind at all! Let's see what you've brought... Oh, what is this?
Vyrn: Hehe! You'll understand if you try it! You're in for a treat!
Charlotta: Oh? I can barely contain my excitement! Excuse me as I dig in!
Charlotta: It's so... sweet! Munch, munch—gulp.
Lyria: How is it?
Charlotta: Crunchy crust, soft on the inside... This is the first time I've had this kind of texture! And what a taste!
Vyrn: Hehe! All right, (Captain)!
Charlotta: What in the skies is this delightful dish?
Cordelia: Could it be a banana friedough perhaps?
Lyria: That's right! I'm surprised you know it, Cordelia!
Cordelia: I saw an advertisement for them in the streets of Port Breeze. They're all the rage there.
Vyrn: That's the way it sounds! We just found out about that too!
Charlotta: I'm not one to keep up with trends, so it's fun to hear about these things.
Charlotta: Oh, and Team Brodelia, your tea-braised pork was absolutely delicious!
Lyria: Tea-braised pork?
Bridgette: Chunky pork boiled in a tea broth. The tea erases any astringent smells and tenderizes the meat.
Lyria: Wow! I bet that's a really mature flavor!
Vyrn: Oh yeah, what about Baotorda? Did he make somethin' yet?
Sevastien: In fact he did. We've seen one of his dishes, and it was simply delightful.
Lyria: Baotorda is really good at cooking...
Sevastien: Everyone's dishes have been brilliant, thanks to all of your individual contributions. I'm certainly looking forward to the completed lunches.
Vyrn: In that case we can't stick around here! We gotta talk lunch strategy!
Lyria: Right! Let's head back, (Captain)!
Cordelia: We should do the same. We're still in the middle of preparing the next course.
Bridgette: Ah, that's right! We'll be back soon. Thank you for answering my question, Captain!
Cordelia: Oh, Bridgette, would you mind going back to the kitchen alone? I have something that needs taking care of.
Bridgette: Roger that! See you in the kitchen.
Cordelia: Thanks. I'll be back soon.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 4: Secret Ingredient: Justice - Episode 3

While the teams are busy preparing their dishes, Charlotta and Sevastien talk about the competition. Sevastien begins to treat Charlotta like a child, which provokes a negative response from the Lumiel Order's captain.



Sevastien: Hahaha. Everyone seems to be savoring the competition.
Charlotta: Yes, it's unexpected, but they're really enjoying themselves. I'm so relieved.
Sevastien: Ah yes, before I forget—where did you run off to earlier?
Charlotta: I was thinking about making mini-flags for everyone's Big Skyfarer Lunches. I needed to go out for the materials.
Charlotta: Every respectable lunch has a mini-flag, after all! And I'll make sure everyone's lunch has one!
Sevastien: Hahah. So that's where you were. Your shopping went smoothly, I hope?
Charlotta: Of course it did. And now that I'm back, will you help me make them? Please, Grandbutler, your dexterity is second to none!
Sevastien: Anything for my little madam. Your grandbutler will do whatever he can to be of assistance.
Charlotta: Grr, Grandbutler, don't call me your little madam! The way you say that makes me feel quite immature!
Sevastien: Oh, my deepest apologies, my little madam.
Charlotta: Grr! What did I just say!
Sevastien: Hahaha.
Charlotta: You've teased me ever for so long... But I'd like you to stop!
Charlotta: I know that I was still just a child when we met, Grandbutler...
Charlotta: But I'm not that child anymore!
Sevastien: That was quite a while ago. Brings back fond memories...
Sevastien recalls Charlotta's matriculation into the order and her rigorous daily training regimen that followed.
"You're not cut out to be a knight."
"How are you gonna fight, Harvin?"
From the very first day, comments from her fellow cadets were ruthless and unyielding.
But Charlotta, devoted to both training and the pursuit of justice, refused to prove their stereotypes true.
Sevastien: On one hand you did your best to overcome the disadvantages inherent in your stature—to say nothing of the arduous training...
Sevastien: But you also shed some tears when no one was looking.
Charlotta: Ooo... I wish you wouldn't say that...
Charlotta: That was just the one time I cried! A-and it was totally by accident!
Sevastien: Oh my, is that how it was?
Sevastien: Your grandbutler has never forgotten his little madam's eyes, teary and red from believing she wasn't strong enough to protect anyone.
Charlotta: I was still so immature and weak...
Sevastien: Hahaha. I think young people like yourself—full of the strength to pursue true justice and the will to follow the right path—are simply delightful.
Sevastien: It was very moving, watching you ascend to the rank of captain. You became so strong and gained the trust of all the other knights...
Sevastien: And now, seeing you surrounded by dear friends who would do anything to help you, I'm the one who can't stop his tears...
Charlotta: Grandbutler...
Sevastien: So please, don't be upset with me for treating you like a child. Grandfathers have the right to show love to their grandchilden, after all.
Charlotta: Wait... What difference does that make?
Sevastien: Loving one's grandchildren is but one of the sweetest pleasures the aged have.
Sevastien: Trying to deny me this small happiness, what a mean person you are. My little madam.
Charlotta: Fine. Go ahead...
Sevastien: Hahaha.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 4: Secret Ingredient: Justice - Episode 4

Cordelia visits Baotorda and asks him why he relinquished the order. Baotorda tells her that one does not need to belong to an order to pursue justice.



Baotorda: Have at you!
Baotorda expertly flips something in a frying pan.
Baotorda: Ha!
What a lovely golden brown—perfect!
Baotorda: And once more! Ha!
A joyous Baotorda is absorbed in his cooking.
Cordelia: Baotorda, may I have a moment of your time?
Baotorda: Greetings, Cordelia. What is it?
Cordelia: I thought I heard a strange voice...
Baotorda: Oh, um... Cough...
My apologies. I tend to get carried away when I'm manning the stove, you see.
Baotorda: Is that all you came for?
Cordelia: Actually...
Cordelia: If I'm not interrupting something, I wanted to hear your reason for renouncing the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
Baotorda: Oh? This is sudden. Am I being officially subpoenaed for the inquisition?
Cordelia: No... This has nothing to do with Captain Charlotta's trial. It's purely my own interest.
Cordelia: There must be a reason that led you to your decision.
Baotorda: I suppose it wouldn't hurt to tell you. But I don't much care for standing and talking. Shall we put on some tea?
Cordelia: Certainly, but allow me to brew it.
Cordelia clutches her fresh cup of tea as Baotorda begins detailing why he left the order.
He muses about a particular day when he was walking through some woods, eventually coming across a band of young children being chased by the imperial army.
Baotorda: There was no justice in the way those men, who bore the crest of their country no less, swung their blades at mere children.
Baotorda: I swore upon my sword, body, and soul... To pursue all that was just... Justice is not something I can so simply relinquish.
Baotorda: To protect those children—to protect true justice—I stood in the halls of the order, face to face with my men, and announced my decision to leave.
Cordelia: ...
Baotorda: The Kingdom of Lumiel and the Erste Empire are allied countries. But by my own discretion, I cannot be involved in either nation's affairs.
Baotorda: When I raised my sword for those children, it was without pretense, as a holy knight.
Cordelia: I see...
Baotorda: It is my belief that I need neither hall nor post to practice justice.
Baotorda: I will be satisfied so long as I can continue to live with integrity—to live forever pure, forever righteous.
Cordelia: ...
Cordelia: Were those children unharmed?
Baotorda: Hahaha... Those children were (Captain) and the crew. As you can very much see now, they're doing quite well.
Cordelia: Really, them!
Baotorda: They're what led me here and why I've settled aboard the Grandcypher.
Baotorda: I am not strong enough to pursue justice with my sword alone.
Baotorda: So I find myself relying on their assistance.
Cordelia: I see...
Baotorda: Have we come to an understanding?
Cordelia: I believe we have. Thank you.
Baotorda returns Cordelia's grin and goes back to cooking.
Cordelia: I'll take my leave now, lest I see all your cards.
Baotorda: Please stay and watch for as long as you like.
Cordelia: Haha. Confident, aren't you?
Cordelia: But I'm afraid I've left Bridgette to do all of the cooking. Until next time.
Baotorda: Ah, I see. Thank you for the delicious tea.
Cordelia: Don't mention it.
Cordelia walks briskly back to the kitchen and an awaiting Bridgette.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 5: Undercooked? Undercover! - Episode 1

Although they're using sophisticated ingredients, Vyrn can't help but feel that Team (Captain)'s dishes are missing something. He suggests spying on the other teams to gather information.



In an effort to make an amazing Big Skyfarer's Lunch, Team (Captain) continue toiling away at perfecting their technique and gathering rare ingredients.
But Vyrn begins to meekly voice his doubt.
Vyrn: Hey, (Captain), Lyria, you guys notice somethin' about the Big Skyfarer's Lunch Showdown?
Vyrn: It's definitely gonna be an uphill battle...
Lyria: Vyrn, what are you talking about?
Vyrn: Well, sure, we've got ingredients and cookbooks...
Vyrn: But we're missing one thing the other teams have...
Lyria: Something that Team Baotorda and Team Brodelia have that we don't?
Vyrn: Exactly. Well, it's...
Lyria: It's what?
Vyrn: Grown-uptitude!
Lyria: Grown-uptitude?
Vyrn: Baotorda and Cordelia—they're both grown-ups! They'd know way more about grown-up stuff than us!
Lyria: Ah, yeah... I guess they would!
Vyrn: Compared to them, all we know is kid's stuff!
Vyrn: So how's about we go on a little spy mission? Don't you wanna know what they're makin'?
Lyria: Hahaha... Are you sure that's all right?
  1. Sounds great!
  2. We probably shouldn't, but...

Choose: Sounds great!
Vyrn: Yeah, how else are we gonna know what kinda grown-uptitude we're up against...
Lyria: Oh, you think we should too, (Captain)? W-well, if it's just a little mission, it should be okay!

Choose: We probably shouldn't, but...
Although hesitant about agreeing to the plan, (Captain) can't help but feel maybe they don't know enough about grown-ups after all.
Lyria: Oh, you think we should too, (Captain)? W-well, if it's just a little mission, it should be okay!
Continue 1
Team (Captain) unanimously agree to head out and conduct an investigation on their fellow competitors.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 5: Undercooked? Undercover! - Episode 2

Team (Captain) sneaks to Baotorda's kitchen and spies on him through a cracked door. Pretending to not notice the trio, he begins to exaggerate his movements, ensuring that Team (Captain) can see his technique.



The trio eventually arrives at the kitchen of "Team" Baotorda.
Vyrn: The door's open! We can sneak a peek!
Lyria: Right behind you!
Lyria: Tip... toe... Let's... go...
Vyrn: Tip... toe... Let's... go...
Each member of Team (Captain) pokes their head through the half-open door and peers inside.
Baotorda: La-la-la...
null : They spy a singing Baotorda chopping away at something.
Vyrn: Hey, he's really gettin' into it!
Lyria: He looks like he's having so much fun! Haha.
Baotorda's ingredients are scrunched together in neat rows on the counter in front of him.
Vyrn: Huh? What's he slicin'? I can't see...
Lyria: Whoa... Baotorda bought so much!
Baotorda: Hm? (Three little faces are in my doorway...)
null : The knight notices Vyrn, Lyria, and (Captain) in the doorway, their heads stacked on top of each other.
Baotorda: (It seems they're trying to be sly. I suppose I'll play along.)
Finding his three spies adorable, Baotorda feigns ingorance of their presence.
Baotorda: Hmm. This veal... I guess I'll use about half of it for mince.
Baotorda holds up the meat higher than necessary and begins speaking to himself in a voice slightly louder than normal.
Lyria: Ah! I can really see it now! Is that hamburger steak?
Vyrn: He cut and tenderized the meat—and then minced it! It's just like in a restaurant!
Baotorda: Let's see, next we'll...
Baotorda retrieves a round lump from a storage container.
Vyrn: What's that?
Baotorda: And now we'll pretreat the foie gran.
Baotorda: Separate the part that goes into the main dish... And we'll make a terrine out of the rest. Waste not, want not.
Lyria: Fwah gooran? I feel like I've heard of that before...
Baotorda: (Foie gran melts at low temperatures. I'll have to hurry so my body heat doesn't affect the texture...)
Flowing movements, masterful ingredient selection—everything about Baotorda's process exudes maturity.
Team (Captain) has no choice but to confront the possibility they could lose to this impressive display of grown-uptitude.
Lyria: Wow... That smells delicious!
Vyrn: This looks bad... Baotorda's gonna snatch our Big Skyfarer's Lunch Showdown crown if we don't do somethin'!
Vyrn: I bet Team Brodelia's got crazy grown-uptitude too!
Vyrn: We better go check them out!
Lyria: R-right! Let's hurry!
The trio makes haste for Team Brodelia's kitchen.
Baotorda: Hahaha. So even you've got a childish side, (Captain). That's certainly not a bad thing.
Having overheard Team (Captain)'s plan, Baotorda continues cooking with a wide smile.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 5: Undercooked? Undercover! - Episode 3

Team (Captain) arrive at Team Brodelia's kitchen just in time to see the opposing team put the finishing touch on their dish: a hefty helping of graviar. Cordelia exposes the trio, but this only strengthens their competitive spirit.



Bridgette: Gr-graviar! This is my first time seeing it!
Cordelia: We should use this as garnish. Graviar's savory flavor should go very well with the dish.
Team Brodelia are putting the final touches on their Big Skyfarer's Lunch.
Bridgette, more accustomed to simple cooking, lets out a surprised squee when she sees the lavish graviar.
Bridgette: W-wait! One tin costs 50,000 rupies!
Cordelia: It was the highest grade item that shop had. That's how much people are willing to pay for it right now.
Bridgette: Cordelia, do you normally eat such expensive food?
Cordelia: Praetor duties often involve entertaining others. When I need to impress someone, especially women, well, the easiest way is a little wining and dining.
Cordelia: I've heard the praetor commander does something similar—using delicious food to force peoples' mouths to open.
Bridgette: Oh, I had no idea.
Cordelia: Trust in our victory. Adults have certain tastes, and when you target them specifically...
Bridgette: A-ah! You're putting in that much? That's half the tin!
Cordelia: That's the idea. Graviar loses its flavor quickly.
Cordelia: It's mature to empty the can after you open it. This is the highest form of prudence amongst grown-ups.
Bridgette: E-even so, it still feels wasteful to use so much!
Cordelia: If it's for the sake of fine dining, then there's nothing wasteful about it.
Bridgette: B-but just thinking about how much even a pinch is worth—it makes me shudder!
Cordelia: Bridgette, it seems cost is your main concern. But the truly important things are taste and emotion.
Cordelia: Here, judge for yourself. You've got your hands full, so I'll feed you.
Cordelia scoops a bit of the graviar with a wooden spoon and shoves it toward Bridgette's mouth.
Bridgette: U-uhh! I can eat it by myself! I'm not a child!
Cordelia: Haha. What's gotten into you? We're friends, aren't we? Stop blushing and open wide. Here comes the airship...
Bridgette, her cheeks flushed red, reluctantly opens her mouth.
Bridgette: Munch...
Cordelia: So? The flavor's quite good, isn't it?
Bridgette: Wow, it is! It's got a fancy tang like I've never had before!
Cordelia: Haha. Good, good. I'm glad you had an opportunity to understand an adult's palate.
Bridgette: Can I have another bite?
Cordelia: Of course. We'll just put it on a small piece of bread, with a thin slice of cheese... Here. Try this.
Team Brodelia continue this back-and-forth until they're finished with their dishes.
Cordelia: Well, meal accomplished... But just how long are you going to stand there?
Bridgette: Huh? How long? Cordelia, I've been here the whole time.
Cordelia: Haha. Not you, Bridgette. I knew you hadn't realized, so I pretended to not notice either.
Cordelia places a hand on the door.
Vyrn: Aah!
Lyria: Hyaa!
Bridgette: A-ah! (Captain), what were you all doing out there?
Cordelia: I realized there were people outside the door right after we began plating. Just as I suspected, it was you three.
Lyria: How did you know!
Cordelia: Haha. I am the last resort of the praetors, after all. If I couldn't spot you, then what use would I be on a mission?
Vyrn: We're no match for you, Cordelia...
Vyrn: Hehe. Sorry. We just wanted to see your grown-uptitude in action...
Cordelia: Grown... uptitude? What in the skies is that?
Team (Captain) comes clean to Cordelia, telling her why they decided to spy on the other teams.
Bridgette: Oh, that's what you were up to! Well, Baotorda and Cordelia are very mature!
Bridgette: They're both so admirable. I bet they're never treated like children.
Cordelia: You spied on Baotorda as well? Haha. I have to admit—that's a bold move.
Vyrn: Hehe. But it seemed like he didn't notice us.
Cordelia: One day while I was visiting Baotorda on business, he showed me how to cook a recipe. It was a thorough demonstration.
Cordelia: Unwavering confidence, tenacious fighting spirit, consideration for Captain Charlotta... He's an upstanding character who has it all.
Cordelia: Baotorda certainly knew you were watching him, and without saying a word, he showed you everything you needed to see.
Lyria: Then that's... Could it be...
Cordelia: Haha, precisely. That's maturity, or as you're fond of calling it, grown-uptitude.
Vyrn: I get it... Baotorda doesn't see us as competition...
Cordelia: Haha. Are you also capable of making such a kind-hearted display of a Big Skyfarer's Lunch?
Lyria: W-we want to make Charlotta feel better! More than anyone else!
Vyrn: That's right! Maybe we ain't got much grown-uptitude, but we care a lot about Charlotta!
Cordelia: Forever pure, forever righteous. This will be a battle to the delicious end.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 5: Undercooked? Undercover! - Episode 4

After realizing that every team is relying on delicacies, Team (Captain) decide they need an ingredient that can stand up to all of the rare dishes. Lyria discovers the elusive royal honey, and the team heads out to procure it.



Lyria: I did some reading about Baotorda's foie gran and Cordelia's graviar!
Lyria: With our truffles, that's the top three delicacies!
Lyria: I knew I had heard of them, and sure enough they were in Katalina's book, Encyclopaedia Delicia!
Vyrn: Yup, grown-ups sure like rare stuff. Every team's using delicacies.
Vyrn: But how are we gonna stand out? We need to get one more step ahead or we're cooked...
Before Team (Captain) lies all of their prepared ingredients: eggs, vegetables, cayenne, truffles, seasoning, bananas, and prismaprawn.
Lyria: We made a lot of mistakes at first, but if we just learn from them, we'll make something delicious for sure!
Vyrn: But we still haven't figured out what our main dish is gonna be...
Vyrn: Truffles don't work as a main dish, and we've still got stuff we haven't used...
Lyria: Hmm... You're right...
Vyrn: If we could just find a way to use our ace-in-the-hole, the prismaprawn...
Lyria: There are so many ways to cook shrimp, I'm not sure where to begin...
Vyrn: Yeah... If we just make it any old way it might spoil its rare flavor...
Lyria: Should we try checking the cookbooks one more time?
Lyria: We might have missed something the first time!
Team (Captain) begins rereading the cookbooks, this time thoroughly devouring them from cover-to-cover.
Lyria: Aha!
Vyrn: What, Lyria? Did you find something?
Lyria: This is Katalina's favorite book, Eat, Pray, Eat: Delicacies Around the World. She said I should read it...
Lyria: And look here! It says there's an elusive ingredient that can stand up to the top three delicacies!
Vyrn: Great job, Lyria! So what is it?
Lyria: It's made by the empress of the forest, Queen Bee, who rules over thousands of drones in her canopy kingdom. It's called...
Lyria: Royal honey!
Vyrn: Royal honey? How's that different from regular honey?
Lyria: Let's see... "Royal honey has been used since ancient times to improve lonj—longevity—and nutrition. Nobles and royal families alike enjoyed imbibing it as a beverage."
Lyria: "It has a layered flavor and a smooth texture; it makes a perfect complement to any type of dish.
Lyria: "Use it in a chili sauce or drizzle it on a friedough—or even enjoy it by itself. There are many ways to utilize this honey."
Lyria: That's what it says!
Vyrn: If... If we made a shrimp friedough with chili sauce using that cayenne pepper, we could actually do this!
Lyria: Yea! Little Skyfarer's Lunches are known for their fried shrimp. Using shrimp in a friedough would be a maturer way to use the ingredient!
With their main dish decided, Team (Captain) begins the final steps to prepare the ultimate Big Skyfarer's Lunch.
They head to Queen Bee's perilous hive in pursuit of the final ingredient: royal honey.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 6: The Holy, the Just, the Delicious - Episode 1

While searching for royal honey in a misty forest, Team (Captain) comes across some of Queen Bee's drones. They have no choice but to fight them off.



Team (Captain) ventures into a mist-laden forest in pursuit of royal honey.
Lyria recites the history of the elusive ingredient, information she learned in Eat, Pray, Eat: Delicacies Around the World.
Lyria: Do you guys know the reason why royal honey is so rare nowadays? It was everywhere before.
Lyria: People learned about its health benefits and started destroying hives. So many bees lost their habitats.
Lyria: Queen Bee got really angry and moved her own hive to an area that people can't reach very easily.
Vyrn: Mmm... People've really put Queen Bee through a lot. Think she'll know we're not bad guys?
Lyria: It's hard to say. But the honey's still being distributed in some areas...
Lyria: Who knows how it's being gathered though. It wasn't written in the book.
Vyrn: That means there's gotta be a secret route somewhere. But first we should find Queen Bee and talk to her.
While Lyria is pushing her way through the thick foliage of the forest, she senses something and begins to walk more carefully.
Vyrn: What's wrong, Lyria? Did you feel something?
Lyria: Something's getting closer and closer. It's going to pass by us.
Drone: Buzzzz!
Vyrn: Aah! A monster!
Lyria: It's probably the Queen's drone! She might've sensed us!
Drones: ...!
Vyrn: (Captain), be careful! These guys look tough!

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 6: The Holy, the Just, the Delicious - Episode 2

Baotorda is putting the finishing touches on his dish when he's visited by Charlotta. They have a heartfelt discussion about the order and the encroaching inquisition.



Baotorda: There now. After I reduce the sauce, it'll be complete.
Charlotta: Good afternoon, Baotorda!
Baotorda: Captain Charlotta, to what do I owe the pleasure?
Charlotta: Sevastien and I were thinking of making mini-flags for the Big Skyfarer's Lunches.
Charlotta: But he's been gone for a bit, and I can't find him anywhere. Do you know where he might be?
Baotorda: I've been here the whole time, so I'm afraid I haven't seen him. Surely he'll be back soon?
Charlotta: Hmm... I suppose so.
Charlotta: He could have said something though—just up and disappearing like that...
Baotorda: Strange of him.
Charlotta: Well, is it all right if I bother you for a bit? I get so bored when I'm by myself.
Charlotta: Oh, you're still cooking! I could assist you!
Baotorda: That's not necessary. All that's left for this dish is reducing the sauce.
Charlotta: I see. I guess everyone will be putting their finishing touches on their dishes by now.
Baotorda: Then how about I assist you with those flags in Sevastien's stead? After all, I'm free for the moment.
Charlotta: Are you sure? That would be great of you!
Charlotta and Baotorda begin to work on the Big Skyfarer's Lunch flags together.
Charlotta: Baotorda.
Baotorda: Yes?
Charlotta: Cordelia and the inquisition...
Charlotta awkwardly broaches the sensitive subject, causing Baotorda to stop working.
Baotorda: Yes...
Charlotta: Assuming this inquisition is enforced, it'll mean my official expulsion from the order.
Charlotta: It is fact that I left the Knights, so it's only natural that I bear responsibility for that decision.
Charlotta: And yet...
Charlotta: I wanted to become a dignified captain, one that everyone could be proud of. I wanted that more than anything, but that was naive.
Baotorda: Captain Charlotta...
Charlotta: When I was young, I was attacked by a monster. A holy knight from the Lumiel Order stepped in and saved me.
Charlotta: From that moment on, I wanted to protect people in the same way.
Charlotta: Entering the order, protecting the weak, going through so much training—it's all been to return the kindness I was shown.
Charlotta: But today marks the end of my time with the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights and anything I could do to give back to them.
Baotorda: ...
Charlotta: From now on the justice I pursue won't be dictated by my position as captain of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights—no, I'll carve my path as a regular holy knight.
Charlotta: But there's one thing... It's just, when I think of letting down all of those knights who believed in me...
Charlotta: That thought is harder to bear than my very body being torn limb from limb.
Charlotta: This guilt must also be a part of the reparations for my past mistakes.
Charlotta: ...
Charlotta: The will of the world, the sacred heart of all things... All I can do is follow it.
Baotorda: ...
Baotorda: Captain Charlotta, when we were reunited on this ship, I was shocked.
Baotorda: You snuck away from the Holy Knights and boarded (Captain)'s airship as a part of his crew—all to seek new height.
Baotorda: Captain, I'm shocked by everything you do.
Charlotta: Ooo... I wish you wouldn't say that...
Baotorda: Day in and day out, you patrol the streets without fail and take swift action should something occur...
Baotorda: Every day, Captain Charlotta, I'm shocked and impressed by everything you do.
Charlotta: ...
Baotorda: The creed of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights is forever pure, forever righteous.
Baotorda: Captain, with your devotion to justice, are you not the very embodiment of this oath?
Baotorda: You have nothing to be ashamed of. You have every right to hold your head high without regret or reservation.
Charlotta: Baotorda...
Baotorda: Continue to shock and awe, and I don't believe you can let anyone down.
Baotorda: Those of us that elected you to be our captain, we wholeheartedly respect you.
Charlotta: You are truly a man of kind words. Thank you.
Baotorda: I've only said what I know to be true. I do not flatter you.
Baotorda's words put Charlotta at ease, and her nervous grin turns into a cheerful smile.
Baotorda: Ah, I imagine that Sevastien will have returned by now. He could be looking for you, Captain Charlotta.
Baotorda: It seems we've almost completed the mini-flags as well. Let's finish up here and return to everyone else.
Charlotta: Yes, let's!
The pair continues working on the Big Skyfarer's Lunch mini-flags.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 6: The Holy, the Just, the Delicious - Episode 3

Team Brodelia finishes the Big Skyfarer's Lunch, but Cordelia seems listless. Bridgette believes her friend's change in mood is due to the stress of conducting the inquisition.



Cordelia: ...
Bridgette: ...
Having completed the Big Skyfarer's Lunch, Cordelia pensively stares into the distance.
Noticing the unusually aloof Cordelia, Bridgette is unable to hide her worry.
Bridgette: ...
Cordelia: Bridgette. You're going to pierce a hole right through me with that staring.
Bridgette: Ah, s-sorry.
Cordelia: There's something you want to talk about, isn't there? Out with it.
Urged by Cordelia, Bridgette begins to mutter her deepheld concerns.
Bridgette: You're... going to go through with Charlotta's inquisition, aren't you?
Cordelia: Yes. That was our arrangement.
Cordelia: "Those who disregard the time-honored traditions of the Order of the Holy Knights are an insult to His Eminence and shall face inquisition."
Cordelia: This is the duty of all those that would call themselves praetors.
Bridgette: So... This is about your duty...
Cordelia: Yes... Why?
Bridgette: Dear Cordelia, I don't want you to push yourself beyond your limit.
Cordelia: Humph, I have no idea what you're trying to suggest, but I've hardly reached—
Bridgette: Cordelia, you've looked so distressed this whole time!
Bridgette: Sure, you've cracked a smile here and there, but I could tell it was all an act...
Cordelia: Bridgette, what's caused you to think this?
Bridgette: We entered the order together. I can at least tell this much about you.
Bridgette: I can't bear to see you interrogate Captain Charlotta...
Bridgette: But you have to, and that's causing you a lot of pain, isn't it?
Bridgette: So... So... I don't know what I should do...
Bridgette: You're in pain, a-and I'm in pain too!
Cordelia: ...
Cordelia not in crew

Cordelia: You've always told me what I needed to hear, haven't you? Whenever I lose sight of what's important, you guide me back to the light.
Cordelia: As long as you're beside me, I don't have to worry. What's just, what's unjust—I won't lose sight of these again.
Bridgette: Dear Cordelia...
Cordelia: I, too, took the vows of the order, so I must devote myself to justice that I can believe in.

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Chapter 6: The Holy, the Just, the Delicious - Episode 4

Team (Captain) make their way to the deepest recesses of the misty forest. There they meet Queen Bee, who promises them royal honey—but only on the condition that they can entertain her with a battle.



Team (Captain) heads deeper into the misty woods to procure the elusive royal honey from Queen Bee.
There they continue to encounter monsters that seem to be Queen Bee's subordinate drones.
Lyria: I feel something strong just ahead!
Vyrn: Bet that means Queen Bee's there.
Drone: Buzzzz!
Vyrn: Geez, back again! We come in peace already!
???: Well, well. What brings you to a place like this?
Lyria: ...!
Vyrn: Who said that!
Lyria: I feel something really, really strong! I don't see anything, but something's here!
Vyrn: Hey, are you Queen Bee? We don't wanna cause trouble!
Vyrn: We came to ask a favor!
Queen Bee's Voice: Teehee... So desperate... How cute....
Lyria: Queen Bee! Honestly, we don't mean any harm!
Lyria: We just need a little royal honey!
Queen Bee's Voice: No can do. It's important for the children to get their food, you see.
Vyrn: Tch... Knew this wouldn't be easy...
Lyria: We understand... Coming into your home, asking for your food...
Queen Bee's Voice: Oh, how awfully meek you are...
Vyrn: Well, we came knowin' we probably weren't gonna convince you. We won't fight you for it.
Queen Bee's Voice: Hmm...
Prompted by Team (Captain) turning to leave, Queen Bee suddenly appears before them.
Queen Bee: I can see you're honest little things, aren't you?
Lyria: Aah!
Vyrn: What's the big idea poppin' outta nowhere like that! Scared me to death!
Queen Bee: It's fine.
Lyria: Huh?
Queen Bee: It's fine, I said. Royal honey's what you want, right? I'll give you some.
Vyrn: Really?
Queen Bee: Indeed. The question is, however, what will you give me in exchange?
Lyria: Oh, yes. That's fair. Let's see... We have some truffles we can give you?
Queen Bee: I don't need anything like that. Especially after seeing your little battle earlier. What strength you have.
Queen Bee: And I like 'em strong. So, come now. Fight me.
Vyrn: What!
Queen Bee: If you're really as strong as you look, I'll give you as much royal honey as you desire.
Lyria: B-but, we don't want to fight with you!
Queen Bee: Oh dear, you don't want any honey after all? You silly little things.
Just as Queen Bee finishes her statement, she signals for her underlings, who begin to swarm around her.
Queen Bee: Oh, and now I'm bored. If you won't come to me, I'll just have a go at you.
Queen Bee: Don't try to run off now.
Vyrn: We're gonna have to fight her! Come on, (Captain)! Do it for the honey!
Queen Bee: Haha. Yes, yes. That's more like it. Come at me with everything you've got. I hate to be disappointed.
Lyria: R-right! We won't hold back!
Queen Bee: Ohohoho! Try not to get stung too hard!

Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel! - Ending

Charlotta judges and happily gobbles down every teams' dishes, restoring her vitality. Her quick recovery prompts Cordelia to finally conduct the inquisition, but Cordelia decides that Charlotta is the embodiment of the tenets of the order.



Queen Bee: Hmm? I guess there's no way you'd be a threat to my hive after all.
Queen Bee: Remember? I said I like 'em strong.
Queen Bee: But to make it this far—that really shows your stamina.
Queen Bee: Hehe. You were great fun. Let's do this again sometime, all right? Being a queen can be so dull.
After proving their strength to Queen Bee, Team (Captain) receives their promised royal honey.
They hurry back to the Grandcypher to begin putting the final touches on their dish.
Vyrn: Now we just gotta remember all the stuff we've learned about cookin', and this'll be in the bag!
Lyria: Leave the bananas to me! I've had the most practice frying them!
Vyrn: And I'll handle the salad! This time I'll use just the right amount of truffle salt!
(Captain) is left with the main dish, a prismaprawn friedough.
The prismaprawn's hard claws and shell present a grueling task at first, but (Captain) is able to cleanly extract the meat.
Lyria: Wow, (Captain)! You're so good at that!
Vyrn: Well, yeah, we read so many cookbooks! Hehe!
After prepping the prismaprawn, (Captain) begins working on the sweet chili sauce.
Vyrn: These cayenne peppers were crazy hot.
Lyria: The sweet royal honey is supposed to be a perfect match for them. I can't wait to see how it turns out!
At long last Team (Captain) finally completes their dish for the Big Skyfarer's Lunch Showdown.
Vyrn and Lyria: It's done!
It's really done!
Vyrn: Well, for better or worse, these are gonna decide if we win or not! The anticipation's making my wings all sweaty!
Lyria: I just hope that we can make Charlotta happy!
Team (Captain), their dish in hand, hurries to Charlotta.
Sevastien: Ahem. Before we begin judging, please allow me to commemorate the occasion with an expression of graditutde toward our participants.
Sevastien: I would like to deeply thank all of you for both your interest and ambition in this competition.
Sevastien: And now I'll reiterate the rules.
Sevastien: Team Baotorda. Team Brodelia.
Sevastien: And Team (Captain). All of your respective dishes have been brought and lined up for judging.
Sevastien: Captain Charlotta will act as our judge this afternoon.
Sevastien: The only criterion she will be using for judging is her own satisfaction level.
Sevastien: Everyone, have you understood the rules clearly?
Sevastien waits to see confirmatory nods from the contestants and then continues.
Sevastien: To the team that manages to pull off a spectacular victory, I will teach them the legendary Lumiel Gourmand recipe!
Sevastien: Captain Charlotta, are you ready to begin?
Charlotta: Indeed! I'm ready and excited to try everyone's Big Skyfarer's Lunches!
Sevastien: Let's begin. Our first dish will be from Team Baotorda.
Charlotta: Let's see what you've made!
Charlotta drives her spoon into the dish.
Charlotta: Munch...
Baotorda: ...
Charlotta: This is delicious! It's a hamburger steak, right? The meat has a strong taste...
Charlotta: But it's marbled so well that the texture is soft. It really melts in your mouth!
Charlotta: What's this on top of the steak?
Sevastien: Hmm, that seems to be a generous amount of foie gran.
Charlotta: Ah, foie gran! This is my first time having it.
Charlotta: But it's unique, savory flavor complements the burger so well! It's a perfect balance!
Charlotta: Hmm... It looks good, tastes good, and was made well...
Charlotta: And I've never tried anything quite like this...
Baotorda: I imagined an elegant woman having dinner at a ritzy restaurant while preparing this dish.
Charlotta: Oh, I totally see it! It really is a beautiful dish!
Baotorda: Thank you very much.
Sevastien: Up next we have a Big Skyfarer's Lunch prepared and presented by Team Brodelia.
Bridgette: Ah, umm... P-please enjoy!
Cordelia: ...
Charlotta: Wow, what a gorgeous dish! Could you tell me more about it, please?
Bridgette: Y-yes! Well, we combined tea-braised pork with a variety of ingredients before finishing it in a big pan.
Cordelia: We wanted to create something with a texture pleasing to both the eye and the palate.
Charlotta: Well, it certainly whets my appetite! I think I'll dive right in!
Charlotta: It's going to be hard to eat this without ruining the lovely appearance... Let's see—cut here and...
Charlotta: A-aaah! I ruined the presentation!
Charlotta: My deepest apologies!
Bridgette: Don't worry! It's all the same after you eat it anyway!
Cordelia: Haha... Ahem. Excuse me.
Charlotta: Oh, I'm so ashamed...
Charlotta: But I'll pull it together for the sake of judging this beautiful food!
Charlotta: Munch, munch, chew...
Charlotta: Ohh! This is such an intriguing texture!
Charlotta: It's delicious! This lumpy black stuff is a great topping!
Sevastien: That would be the famous delicacy known as the black pearls of the sea, graviar.
Charlotta: So smooth, so gorgeous, so, soo delicious! It was excellent!
Bridgette: Th-thank you very much!
Sevastien: And then that brings us to our final competitors, Team (Captain).
Charlotta: Oh! Team (Captain), I have a feeling I'm already very well acquainted with your dish!
Charlotta: But something about this shrimp screams excellence...
Sevastien: O-oh my, that's prismaprawn. To come across such an ingredient as this...
Sevastien: Hmm... And you've chosen to use it in a friedough. The accompanying chili sauce was certainly a good choice.
Charlotta: Well, let's try it! Hmm... Um...
Charlotta: This... This...
Charlotta stuffs a piece of fluffy omelette in her mouth.
Charlotta: Seriously this...
She then devours a piece of the banana friedough and some of the salad.
Charlotta: This is exactly what I was looking for!
Vyrn: Hehe! It's that good!
Baotorda: The way Captain Charlotta's stuffing her cheeks...
Lyria: What's the matter?
Baotorda: Oh, you didn't notice? It's the same way she would scarf down Little Skyfarer's Lunches.
Bridgette: And that look in her eyes—it's much different from when she was eating either of our dishes.
Cordelia: Haha, I can see it. The way she's holding the spoon in her mouth, it's like she's retrieved her childhood innocence.
Baotorda: You're right.
Sevastien: Hahaha... What a splendid showdown.
Team (Captain)'s Big Skyfarer's Lunch has driven Charlotta into a delectable, heavenly stupor. The winner of the competition is clear.
Charlotta: Ah! Sorry, this food just put me in a trance!
Sevastien: Haha. Based on your reaction, it would seem the dish prepared by Team (Captain) held both your stomach and mind in unanimous satisfaction.
Sevastien: So, madam, please announce your decision.
Charlotta: Thank you, Grandbutler!
Charlotta: And the winner of the Big Skyfarer's Lunch Showdown iiis: Team (Captain)!
Vyrn: All right, (Captain)! We're the winners!
Lyria: We actually did it!
Cordelia: Well met.
Bridgette: Congratulations! Even though we lost, it was still great fun!
Baotorda: Good work. I was aiming to take the victory, but it seems I was no match for you.
Charlotta: But I really enjoyed everyone's dishes!
Sevastien: Victory was achieved by the team that was able to preserve the spark that makes a Little Skyfarer's Lunch a Little Skyfarer's Lunch.
Charlotta: Based on taste alone, the race was honestly neck and neck.
Charlotta: Every single dish was exquisite and filled with flavor!
Charlotta: But, Baotorda, Cordelia, and Bridgette, your cooking was—how can I say this...
Charlotta: Just a little unfamiliar to me...
Sevastien: Rather than preparing a Big Skyfarer's Lunch, you might have overshot and accidentally produced a Big Skyfarer's Dinner.
Vyrn: Oh wow, so in the end they had too much grown-uptitude.
Cordelia: We weren't able to comply with Captain Charlotta's wishes after all.
Baotorda: Cooking is a profound thing.
Sevastien: And now, just as I first promised, I present to you the Lumiel Gourmand recipe.
(Captain) accepts the recipe from Sevastien's hand.
Lyria: I'm so happy! We'll be able to make everyone smile with this recipe!
Lyria: Charlotta's feeling better too, so now we just...
Cordelia: ...
Having made a full recovery, Charlotta now faces an inquisition at the hands of Cordelia.
Everyone's celebratory expressions begin to sour as this realization spreads across the room.
Wrapped in the tense air, a stone-faced Charlotta stands directly in front of Cordelia.
Charlotta: ...
Cordelia: Captain Charlotta, per our agreement, we will now begin the inquisition procedures.
Cordelia stares directly at Charlotta.
Cordelia: By the virtuous name of his Eminence, and in accordance with the Lumiel inquisition code, I bid you, answer my question.
Cordelia: What does justice mean to you? Swear to the azure sword that you will speak no falsehood!
Charlotta: What is justice...
Charlotta: I will never forget the day my life was saved by the order on that snow-covered mountain, nor will I cease admiring them.
Charlotta: I vowed to become someone capable of protecting others. That vow is my justice.
Charlotta: A just heart helped me when I was weak. It helped me to become stronger.
Charlotta: The gratitude and happiness of being saved, it's an emotion I can't put into words...
Charlotta: But it's that very emotion that I want others to experience.
Charlotta: I believe that if a cycle of mutual aid swells throughout the world, then happiness will swell with it.
Charlotta: So I will remain forever pure, forever righteous... in pursuit of my own justice.
Charlotta: Even if I am expelled from the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights, my beliefs won't change.
Charlotta: Justice means forever walking by the divine spirit. And I don't need an order to do that.
The room is still, everyone watching the pair with bated breath. Cordelia lets out a terse sigh.
Cordelia: Your justice has been witnessed.
Cordelia: Your integrity has never been forgotten. There is no other captain that we, the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights, can so proudly boast of.
Cordelia lowers her head in a display of loyalty.
Charlotta: Cordelia...
Bridgette: Cordelia!
Lyria: So... she's not guilty?
Cordelia: How would one find fault on hands so pure?
Cordelia: Captain Charlotta's report will consist of—and should consist of—nothing but the truth.
Cordelia: And one more thing... Captain Charlotta, I want to take this moment to offer my deepest apologies.
Cordelia: Captain, I humbly ask for your forgiveness.
Charlotta: Cordelia!
Cordelia: ...!
Charlotta: You carried out your duty as a praetor until the very end. Excellent work, knight!
Cordelia: Captain Charlotta...
Charlotta: Forever pure, forever righteous... Continue to seek justice in all that you do!
Charlotta: Is that understood?
Cordelia: Yes, ma'am.
Lyria: I'm so glad! For both Charlotta and Cordelia!
Bridgette: Cordelia! I knew you would do what's right!
Cordelia: Haha. I told you, didn't I? I have to follow my own justice too.
Baotorda: Well then, shall we hold a banquet with the food everyone's made?
Vyrn: Yeah! We made a ton of stuff! I'll go get our share!
Charlotta: Ah, I'll help you!
Charlotta: Oh, (Captain), that banana friedough was simply marvelous...
Charlotta was able to overcome her recent dilemmas through both the help of her friends and no small effort of her own.
The banquet, full of smiles and cheer, lasted well into the evening.
Bonds of reforged friendship, born from a place of mutual respect and understanding, fill the Grandcypher as it sails through the night sky.
Sevastien: Hahaha. Seems I was worried for nothing.
The curious turmoil between the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights and the Grandcypher has finally drawn to an amicable, if not delicious, close.
A few days later.
Lyria: Umm... It's edible and all, but...
Bridgette: I made it exactly according to the recipe... How strange...
Recently the crew have been trying to utilize the Lumiel Gourmand recipe in everything they cook.
Lyria: No matter what we do, we just can't make anything like Sevas did.
Baotorda: There might be nothing we can do.
Baotorda: Maybe Sevastien earned the title Lumiel Gourmand, because he's the only one capable of this technique?
Bridgette: What do you mean?
Baotorda: Following recipes blindly does not a culinarian make. One needs skill to match.
Vyrn: What!
Baotorda: There is a degree to which ordinary people cannot imitate masters. If it's true of swordsmanship, then it is doubly true of cooking.
Lyria: Ah... That's a little disappointing...
Vyrn: Really? Even you can't handle it, Baotorda? You're so good at cookin'!
Lyria: When we saw you cooking, Baotorda, you looked like you were having so much fun. I want to try cooking with you some day!
Vyrn: Haha! Yeah, I never took you for the type to croon when you're workin'!
Baotorda: It's not that strange...
Bridgette: Huh? Baotorda sings? That's surprising!
Charlotta: Haha. Oh, I was aware of that! He's always been one to visit la-la land when he's working.
Charlotta: He's able to so thoroughly concentrate on cooking that he's capable of blocking out everything around him!
Baotorda: Captain Charlotta, any further talk...
Charlotta: Baotorda has gained quite the reputation within the order for being a secret songbird!
Vyrn: Really? Baotorda, sounds like you're famous!
Baotorda: I never knew I was such a worthy topic of discussion...
Bridgette: I've never heard any of these rumors. It's my first time finding out!
Baotorda: If I had known my peculiarites were being watched so closely, I would have been unable to cook.
Charlotta: Hahaha. And that's yet another one of your great sides!
Charlotta: And on that note, (Captain), I'm off to patrol!
Bridgette: Ah! I'll go too! I still need to do my good deed for the day!
Charlotta rushes out of the Grandcypher, Bridgette in her wake.
The captain of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights spends the rest of the day living up to the very height of her purpose: to find and help those in need.
Vyrn: How's about we go grab another mission too?
The crew passes the remainder of the peaceful afternoon discussing their next objective.
Cordelia, on the other hand, experiences an entirely different kind of afternoon.
Footsteps echo through the hallowed assembly hall of the Holy Knights.
Cordelia: I've come to deliver the verdict of the inquisition concerning Captain of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights Charlotta Fenia.
???: Oh my. So how did it fair?
Cordelia: Sir!
(Hm? Where have I heard that voice before?)
Sevastien: Hahaha. You still haven't realized?
Cordelia: Sevastien! Why are you here!
Sevastien: Well, who were you expecting to see?
Cordelia: The archpraetor...
Cordelia: B-but this can't be...
Sevastien: Oh, can't it? I am Sevastien, archpraetor of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
Sevastien: Hahaha. Even our most esteemed praetor couldn't pick up on my trail.
Cordelia: D-does Captain Charlotta know that you command the praetors?
Sevastien: No. That's top secret information. The praetors are the shadow of the order. It wouldn't be prudent to let anyone know about my position.
Cordelia: Then why show yourself to me?
Sevastien: I've a top secret assignment for you, one that only a knight of your caliber could handle.
Cordelia: A classified mission? What are the details of this mission?
Sevastien: I would like you to be our lifeline with that child.
Cordelia: Me? A bridge between you and Captain Charlotta?
Sevastien: Due to her position, she has many enemies. If we aren't proactive in protecting her, our actions could be too slow to stop any true threats.
Sevastien: I am often on expedition. So I'll need someone I can rely on.
Cordelia: As you decree, Commander, even if it costs me my life.
Cordelia: But about Captain Charlotta's verdict... What is to become of her?
Sevastien: Haha. Do not concern yourself. I'll be talking with someone above me about that.
Cordelia: Above you?
Sevastien: Yes. I'm past my prime, but I can at least act with virtue, and that should give me a bit of sway with the upper echelons.
Cordelia: Hah. Don't play coy with me. I'm sure with your skills in espionage, you'll have no trouble at all convincing them.
Sevastien: Me? Playing coy? Oh, how absurd. Haha.
Sevastien: That child said she wanted to become a captain that everyone in the order could be proud of.
Sevastien: No matter where she goes, she helps those weaker than herself. Has there ever been a better personification of forever pure, forever righteous?
Sevastien: I can't think of a more fitting person to symbolize the justice of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights.
Sevastien: So, if you find cause for alarm within the order, please, report it to me in detail—your secret mission depends on it.
Cordelia: I swear by this azure sword that I will!
This is Sevastien, acting commander of the praetors. No one was aware of his identity, but here and now, someone else finally shares his secret.
And that person is Cordelia, the last resort of the praetors.
As if prearranging a code, or perhaps ascertaining the others' true intention, the pair lock eyes and grin.
Little Skyfarer a la Sacre Blumiel
The End
